honestly making siri event a little bit better (which as far as I can tell has stubbornly refused to improve over the last few years) would make me more exicted about apple intelligence than all the text summarization and rewriting features
The only ML improvements I noticed and use in my Apple products in year is Chinese text OCR in images, and Chinese handwritten recognition on ipad with pencil. Nothing in Apple Intelligence is making me bat an eye.
I've been using the 18.1 beta for a month now and Siri is noticable better at recognizing your speech and working around less explicit requests e.g. "set a timer for 15 minutes... uh make that 10"
