The funny thing about Apple Intelligence being on by default, you still have to actually interact with the features to get the Apple Intelligence stuff. It’s not like it just magically starts taking screenshots of all your apps and storing them.

The writing tools still have to be invoked manually. The generative imaging still has to be used manually. Siri doesn’t magically connect to ChatGPT or anything, you still have to manually enable it. If you don’t, nothing is different.

What is default now about Apple Intelligence in macOS 15.3, iOS 18.3, et fam is that models will be downloaded in the background and the manual options to interact with them will be available if you’re in a region with Apple Intelligence

Now, if iOS/macOS/tvOS started automatically generating and setting wallpapers/desktop pictures based on the type of foods and beverages Apple Intelligence detected you liked in your photos, then I’d be super pissed, irregardless of how much I love Taco Bell and Baja Blast.

I saw some complaints that complained Apple Intelligence would use disk space for the models, even if you never engaged with Apple Intelligence and that that was a travesty. It’s 4.84GB-7GB, fraction of total disk space.

And since it uses the MobileAsset framework to deliver the models, they’ll get purged when the space is actually needed if Apple Intelligence is switched off.

@rosyna I’m curious why you’re carrying water for a trillion dollar company that is now actively working against your and many other people’s interests.

“Ignore it, it’s harmless” is absolutely the wrong take. It might be designed to appear harmless right now, but that can change overnight and without any warning or recourse. What are you getting out of defending them? Weren’t they abusive to you and turned a blind eye to your needs as an employee? Why defend them?
