What commenters are saying
Commenters expressed skepticism about the actual improvements over existing Siri, with several noting the demo shows basic functionality already available. The naming "Apple Intelligence" (AI) drew criticism as uncreative and tone-deaf given public sentiment around AI. Multiple users noted similarities to Google's Gemini, including in image generation style and verbose text responses, suggesting Apple may be licensing or building atop existing models. Some questioned whether the on-device processing claims are substantive or marketing. The thread noted Apple previously promised AI improvements "a couple years ago" without delivery.
