I do want Apple Intelligence, I use it daily on my Mac. Agree on the Vision Pro though; I liked mine when I had one, but it was way too expensive for something that I was actively searching to find a use case for.
I should clarify, that's exactly what I do want and pretty much what I use it for; I like it for its platform integrations. I like the automatic summarization¹ of my new emails, iMessages, various notifications, etc. I also like being able to highlight any text in my browser and have it summarize it or, if I've written it, proofread it.
I don't use the chatting features at all. I think I've tried that a total of three times, and the last two it explicitly asked me if I wanted to have it ask ChatGPT handle the request because it was complex or something like that.
¹ I'm aware of the issues surrounding AI summarization; I still read my emails and messages, but I like it for getting an idea of what's going on in my inboxes at a glance.
I gave apple intelligence one week before deciding to disable it everywhere.
Though, I am quite bearish on “AI” assistance. (i have AI in quotes because theres a lot of machine learning things, like machine vision, that smell and sound a lot like what we call AI today).
Basically I just like the native integrations you get by having it built in with the platform.
