I think it's a great move that Apple is cautious with including a hardcore LLM in everything. They are not that useful to the regular user.

Nobody is forcing "hardcore LLM" features on anyone, besides maybe Microsoft. This is that same cope as "I'm glad Apple Car can't crash and threaten people's lives" despite the fact that... yunno, Apple really wanted to bring it to market.

Siri, sideloading and AI features all all the same way; give people options and nobody will complain.

If they give Siri LLMs, there will be headlines that it drove kids to suicide. People really don't need LLMs.

Sideloading is bad for business. Most users don't care. Remember, we, the devs, are not the core target/biggest spenders. They are targeting a large audience of young people who are not tech-savvy.
