I was considering enabling it, and I could see the features being useful for some people, but not for me.
For example, notification summaries. If someone has apps blasting them with notifications, summarizing them into fewer more meaningful ones could be truly helpful. But for me, I’ve carefully managed my notifications. I get almost none. Every single one that is enabled is important and actionable. I don’t need to summarize what’s already small.
The writing help is another example. Maybe a person is a slow typist. Maybe they are losing a lot of time thinking of what to write, or how to word something. Maybe they are writing in a language in which they are less than perfectly fluent. In those cases the Apple Intelligence can be truly helpful. None of those are me, so I disabled it.
Agreed. Different for different people. Notification summaries are a lifesaver for me.
Work MS teams but no copilot, lots of group chats about lower environment issues or prod issues that move super fast. The summaries have legit saved me 10 min of getting up to speed, and let me decide quickly if I need to intervene or keep working my separate workstream.
The only downside for me - it keeps the summaries VERY short. Another 5-8 words as a in between notification and full app open would be great for me. (But, I acknowledge I’m likely an edge case)
Notification summaries is an interesting one, feels like an email spam filter. I've always been of the mind, though, that if I'm getting too much spam I need a new email address rather than a better filter (or in this case, better notification limits/settings).
