Was anyone on preparing? On Mac for AI?
I just installed it on parallels so idk if this is normal

For me it's just not wanting to devote battery and CPU to something I'm not likely to use much.
Guess we'll see soon how much it affects performance and battery.
You know some people will see colors when they recognize all the misspellings, and the rage will send them straight to the hospital.They aren’t even bringing it to the UK straight away. The US takes our language, misspell a few words and then assume because of this we won’t be able to understand them and so cannot release it here… Just as a heads up but sticking a Z in words which should have an S isn’t going to confuse us
I can confirm that Apple Intelligence can be enabled outside the US. I’m located in Australia, and I’ve set my region, device language, and Siri language to US English. After selecting the menu item, joining the waitlist, and confirming the settings, I successfully enabled Apple Intelligence on my device, which allowed me to access 40 miles of driving range.
(I rewrote this with Apple Intelligence. No idea why it mentioned driving range, but left it because science 😂)

Right. You must have developed and tested lots of software I think. You think you can just ‘take the bugs out’ if you know about them?
Yup, bizarre. 😏
It should be using the same logic for determining if you are in Europe to pester you about alternative browsers or enable alternative app marketplaces to be installed to block AI from being downloaded/enabled. Does your phone think it is in the EU otherwise?
Someone said the AI phone record feature works great. That will be nice, as the 3rd party phone record apps don't work that good.
Two waits - one is to limit load on the infrastructure requests 'escalate' to, the other is to download the model data locally and to install it.
LOL! I hope you asked it to elaborate how that helps.
Now we see why Apple isn't trying to build comprehensive world models - because its a hard/unsolved problem that gives results that could make them look bad.
If someone asks Siri "Can I use a belt sander to save money on corrective laser eye surgery" they'll happily let OpenAI field that request.
The base model is built/verified to understand and generate US English, and to understand US English localities. I believe it will shut off if you change these, because it won't be able to accommodate that change.
British and Canadian English aren't that big of a delta, so I can't see it taking _that_ long for them to support them proper. Australian English, we'll just have to wait and see.
Queries shouldn't tie up resources until you ask a question. This is why Apple invested heavily in research around the ability to run their models efficiently off of flash rather than requiring them to be in RAM.
Indexing is still basically spotlight.
The new categories for inbound processing might - before synced/taken photos had facial recognition applied, but now you'll have a few more things like summarization of received email.
How long did it take once changing region/language and joining the waitlist?
