"Users have ultimate control."Do all roads still lead to iCloud and Apple servers ?

Huh? All roads don’t lead to iCloud or Apple servers. You can turn iCloud off. It’s also possible to use some other service. If you don’t want to sync photos to iCloud, use Google or something else. Same goes for your contacts and calendar and passwords, etc. Nothing is stopping you from that.

Will ChatGP ultimately end up being 'Sherlocked'...?

It wouldn’t surprise me in the least to find that Apple is working on their own solution with the intention of no longer needing to use ChatGPT or some other third-party.
