No, I’ll pass

Why?

The idea according to the article is to be “a new AI agent would monitor the data in the Health app and provide feedback to the user on how to improve their health. This will apparently work to offer advice similar to how a real doctor would to a patient.”
Considering how many truly idiotic mistakes AI systems make there’s no way I would trust it. Maybe in 20-30 years, but today? Hell no we’re still at the stage where AI systems recommend adding glue to pizza sauce. 

No, I’ll pass

Problem is, I’m not aware there is any good way to delete the data, which sucks up several GB on my iPad and MBA (it isn’t an issue on my iPhone 14 Pro Max since that doesn’t support Apple “Intelligence”).

It auto-deletes when the feature is turned off.

Not on my mac. It's been turned off since I updated it a few weeks ago and the data is still there

Same here. Only 5GB for me, not that I'm happy about it.

Wierd, the Apple documentation says it should auto-purge, and we did see that here. We'll do some digging.

The most notable thing I’ve been seeing about Apple Intelligence is how uneven it is. The amount of data changes. Whether updates turn it on again after updates is hit and miss. Whether the data gets deleted after you turn it off is a craps shoot. It’s one of the least reliable apps I’ve ever heard of. 

Yes, thank you. I will bookmark this. I have no interest or use for Apple Intelligence now and it is almost certain that I never will.

I agree. Too many who have no knowledge about how things really work are in control.

Except in this case, they're backing into the right answer.  Facebook, Twitter, and most others these days are CURATORS, not just platforms that repost and relay other people's opinion.  Curation IS opinion, IS editor.ial content.  They are owners of that, and they've been hiding behind Section 230 to blast their own agendas and opinions while individual users are still on the hook legally and financially for their own posts.  

That obviously isn't equal treatment under the law.  Section 230 needs to be gutted, or killed.  It's not like corporations don't have a million other avenues of protection for themselves, and where they don't, they have lawyers.  Endless supplies of lawyers.

And when it is gone you will find much of the interactive part of the internet will shut down. Personally I’m not worried about FB, X, Reddit, and the like. It’s the little sites, the niche SM sites, the single person that allows comments on their own web site, that will be forced to shut down. Far from increasing free speech it will decrease. Many venues will be gone. Big ones like FB will have to crack down HARD on content. You think your voice has been throttled until now? You ain’t seen nothing yet. If the sites that remain are liable for anything that appears they are going to make them suitable for 6 year olds and ANYTHING that even slightly might be questionable will be purged.
