Nice live blog at The Verge of the interview session with iJustine. Nilay Patel comments:
I think Apple really wants to seem transparent and open about their AI plans, especially around privacy, and having Federighi and Giannandrea this much on the record in basically every publication is a good way to do it.
Manton Reece @jonah To be blunt, your fear is correct. It will increasingly be impossible to opt out of AI. However, a lot of what Apple is doing is inherently opt-in because you don’t use it unless you actually use it, e.g. avoid the writing tools if you don’t want that. Micro.blog has its AI setting and we’re committed to that, but it’s going to be rare elsewhere.
