That’s not a good AI recreation of my dog, above, and so far Image Playground has proved to be nothing more than a gimmick, one that doesn’t work particularly well.

Summarising notifications has proved to be haphazard at best and it didn’t take me long to disable the feature because I found that it was wasting time as I had to look at each individual message anyway- for whatever reason, the way it works on Apple products at the moment seems to be overly friendly, but without the ability to be specific enough.

For now I am using none of the Apple Intelligence features because they do not offer advantages that go above being able to control the data myself. I suspect Apple will get this right, but at the moment I feel like a beta tester right at the start of the process- I didn’t sign up for that.
