My Gear:

[adampreiser]

Learned something new. Intelligent breakthrough for focus modes. Thanks.

[matannagar]

Is it already available in Mac? I have the M2

[aniruddhsinhjadav]

Can you edit photos like iphone in macos with apple intelligence?

[KeremKrm-pu]

How about performance? Is it faster than other operation systems?

[doogie]

When you ask AI about weather, is it only using Apple Weather, or will it look at 3rd party apps (like The Weather Channel) as well?

Apple Intelligence is great. Who said it was not going to appear until next year? The first paragraph below is my comment on your video. The following paragraph is an Apple intelligence rewrite. This is cool stuff. By the way this came from macOS Sequoia 15.1 beta.

Awesome video Stephen. I really appreciate the contact you create. It keeps me up-to-date and saves me time. Thank you bearded teacher for your effort.

Stephen, your video is truly amazing! I genuinely appreciate the effort you put into creating it. It keeps me informed and saves me a lot of time. Thank you, bearded teacher, for your hard work!

and Genmoji and Image Playground and Clean Up tool on Photos (believe me, this is on macOS Sequoia 15.1)

Stephen, in yesterday’s video you showed a toggle in the Apple Intelligence settings where it looked like you could turn Apple Intelligence off. Is that true and do you know if Apple plans to leave that toggle in so we can just turn Apple Intelligence off completely if we’re uninterested in gimmicks? Thanks. Also, I love all of your videos even though I hate Apple Intelligence lol. I’m a big fan of yours!

[mhondoroinc]

Over 30 percent of the video is advertising

[admrsh]

I’m confused on the Apple website it says that summaries in reader are not an Apple intelligence feature

[u_mafakaman]

how come i cant see any of the intelegence things on my mac and its on mac os 15

[jeffhale]

Thanks for sharing. Blessings on your day.

Apple Intelligence didn't manage to summarize the article "Effect of psilocybin versus escitalopram on depression symptom severity in patients with moderate-to-severe major depressive disorder: observational 6-month follow-up of a phase 2, double-blind, randomised, controlled trial" and it makes me sad

[IcedCoffeeLover]

that’s so cool
im not gonna update my iphone to the software update cause my messages app keeps crashing and kicking me out of the app and stuff like that
So yeah

[minhkhoinguyen]

So sad that's only avaible in US =))

[tonyo.]

Not happy that Apple Intelligence is only available for iPhones 15 and up. 😡. They want to force us to keep upgrading our perfectly good phones for their new features. Samsung has theirs for older phones 🤔

[williamtopping]

I'm so important I want summaries of my summaries so I can spend time getting AI to write all my content so other people can use AI to summarise them.

What a weird world we are creating
