So for you is the thing that because it's under the brand of Apple Intelligence and the apps are all made by Apple that you expect this kind of global toggle? Because I wouldn't expect to be able to turn off "AI" features in all my non-Apple apps simultaneously.
To me they're just new features in iOS and new features in Apple's various apps. Never really before has there really been "turn off all changes in the last update."
Entirely true, and I had to go through all my freaking apps and turn off Siri in them because I dont want some annoying voice feature, one by one.
This compromises my belief in Apple being a company that gives a crap about UX.
Here's an idea - say they are 10000 things, but I conceptualize them as one as your customer. LET ME TURN IT OFF. THAT CHANGES NOTHING ABOUT WHAT I WANT AND I PAY YOU MONEY.
I read your point, you ignored mine - I understand the companies position, and they are wrong, my customer perception matters because you literally changed my experience.
I genuinely don't care about the other perspective when I am explaining the one you are ignoring.
You just turned on a thing I find annoying that I have to individually turn off everywhere, which one of us is doing a knee jerk thing again?
You, remove the knee.
You need to sell me on the value prop of a thing, not force it upon me.
