Let’s see:

1Password - when they stepped onto the Electron bandwagon, I stepped off paying for any updates. 7.whatever still runs, if all you need is a password vault, which I use as a deep archive (for accounts I never use, but some vendor may still maintain my account) and a backup to Keychain Access. Speaking of which, what will Passwords offer that Keychain access does not?

Grammarly: Never used it. After six years of rote learning of grammar, syntax, and composition in English in high school, at least until dementia sets in, I don’t need anyone else’s grammar interventions.

Calculator: will have to see what it can do that I don’t do already with Kalkulilo.

ChatGPT: As I emailed Tim Cook last evening, all I want from ChatGPT is a kill switch so I am never pestered to use it, for anything.

Allow me to express my skepticism that any of these changes will make my life better.

I can hardly wait for the next time I drop my iPad. Will the OS tell me to be calmer and not throw things?

I’m probably in an incredible minority now that laptops have effectively replaced desktops, but I find the WiFi requirement for Handoff features to be unnecessary. Why can’t these features work for any and all devices on the same subnet, regardless of physical access layer?
