I got tired of Google shoving AI down my throat in yet another place in my phone.

I’m surprised it even gave me the choice to “report and block”.

    Convenient to leave out Apple it’s working on AI (Apple Intelligence) too. I don’t think any big company is safe from the hype train.

      Is Apple Intelligence even real? I don’t have any apple product myself but my parents have iphones and sometimes I use their ipad and I’ve never seen it or heard anyone talk about it IRL. Pretty sure it was just a prank/marketing trick

        It’s only on the latest iphone, I don’t remember which iPads, and only the m-series macs. So far from what I’ve seen it’s not as aggressively annoying as Gemini with the chat app messages.

          You can also turn off every AI feature with a single toggle in Settings, and it lets you choose whether to enable it during device setup. For now, at least.

          I believe they have shelved Apple Intelligence for now because they can’t get the quality up to their standards.

          Kind of a kick in the nuts to people who bought iPhone 16s in preparation.
