What do you mean, 'despite'? I don't want it. And it seems impossible to get away from theses 'assistants'. I'm all the time reminded that I have somebody snooping on everything I do and say on my phone because it seems to me that Siri is impossible to get rid of. I know we are talking about 'Apple Intelligence' but I am sure the same shit applies.
What happened to putting the user in control? At least in the OLD walled garden I got toggle the switches (mostly) myself.
