Apple recently updated its website regarding the use of imagery for its Look Around feature in Maps, stating that from March 2025, it will utilize this data to train AI models related to image recognition and enhancement. Images are collected through specialized vehicles and backpacks, ensuring enhanced privacy by blurring faces and license plates. Users can request additional blurs for their homes. Apple's existing AI tools include features in Photos, like the Clean Up tool and Image Playground, which improve user experience by enhancing image recognition and editing capabilities.
Apple's Look Around feature will start using collected imagery to train models for its products, enhancing privacy while improving image recognition and creation.
The company asserts that privacy is a priority, as any published Look Around imagery will have faces and license plates blurred, and requests for additional blurring are accepted.
