Updating to the latest iOS, which included a critical security patch, once again enabled my Apple Intelligence. This happened with the last update, someone reported it on HN so I thought to check. Once again, there it was enabled.

I am assuming that you have objections to Apple Intelligence. Are there concerns with it I should be aware of? Apple Intelligence is limited, but I like some of the feature such as “remove distracting elements” in Safari.

Based on what I know about it, Apple Intelligence is not inherently bad. I just choose not to use it and purposefully disabled it, so to have it re-enabled automagically by an update feels bad.

Updated iPhone and two iPads yesterday. None of them had Apple Intelligence turned on after the update completed. Maybe it happens to some people but I doubt Apple deliberately re-enabled it in the update.

Seems to only affect some users. Also, not claiming it was on purpose or with malicious intent. I’m sure it is an unintentional bug.
But, it also goes to show that Apple can tweak your settings at will, ignoring your prior preferences, which I think we can all agree should not happen.

It is also not the first time this happens:
