Abstract
The misuse of Large Language Models (LLMs) to infer emotions from text for
malicious purposes, known as emotion inference attacks, poses a significant
threat to user privacy. In this paper, we investigate the potential of Apple
Intelligence's writing tools, integrated across iPhone, iPad, and MacBook, to
mitigate these risks through text modifications such as rewriting and tone
adjustment. By developing early novel datasets specifically for this purpose,
we empirically assess how different text modifications influence LLM-based
detection. This capability suggests strong potential for Apple Intelligence's
writing tools as privacy-preserving mechanisms. Our findings lay the groundwork
for future adaptive rewriting systems capable of dynamically neutralizing
sensitive emotional content to enhance user privacy. To the best of our
knowledge, this research provides the first empirical analysis of Apple
Intelligence's text-modification tools within a privacy-preservation context
with the broader goal of developing on-device, user-centric privacy-preserving
mechanisms to protect against LLMs-based advanced inference attacks on deployed
systems.
