From my reading of the article, it sounds as though ‘Liquid Glass’ is being phased out even before the beta program has finished. Is this the case?

It’ll be interesting to see if the update stops the string of kernel panics associated with sleep mode that has cropped up on my Mac mini M4 Pro since the last ‘update’. That’s been quite annoying, to say the least.

Note: CarPlay updates not mentioned in the AUS version of the .4 update

My 16 Pro Max has become appreciably more responsive since I nuked ‘AI’ on it, especially with regards to Siri. What do I miss? Nothing. I certainly don’t miss oppositely-wrong summaries (which occurred even after Apple paused some in other areas like news summaries). As a side note I’m slightly fed up with the delay in activating RCS here in Australia.

Turning ‘AI’ off has made using my phone less cluttered and much smoother. Like others here I’ll only be installing the update for the security stuff. I’m not holding my breath on CarPlay improvements in my three-year old KIA, though.

‘Apple “Intelligence”’ isn’t worth the paper it’s written on. Garbage functionality, garbage interface. A very good reason to not buy an Apple product (except for new the iPad 11), or at least an extremely good reason TO TURN THE HEAP OF RUBBISH OFF. Which I have just done on the phone, where it is most intrusive. Life really is to short to muck around with that.
