Apple has released a new software update on Monday. This includes at least for new devices, iOS 18.3, which automatically opens users to Apple Intelligence.
Unlike what the high -tech industry thinks or wants to believe, no one wants an AI function that is effective by default on the device. You may want to turn off your new AI function because you are worried about the impact on the environment of the AI industry and some of the political views of the top players in the industry. So far, it has been proven to apply to Apple Intelligence, so there is a whole SUBREDDIT that focuses on the failure.
We are here to help you turn off Apple Intelligence from your device. This is the same process on iPhone, iPad, and Mac, and relatively easy.
Go to iOS settings or Mac system settings, and tap or click Apple Intelligence.
If you turn on the switch on a Mac, click the toogle and turn it off. You may want to turn off Siri here as well.

In iOS, scroll to Apple Intelligence & Siri when opening the configuration app, tap the spogules and turn it off. Here you can turn off Siri. This is especially proposed for privacy and security reasons related to the lock screen Siri.
Note that Apple has designed the AI function like a privacy -oriented one that has a system and infrastructure that the company calls a private cloud computer. In fact, this means that there is no personal data that touches the Apple Intelligence server company.
