I got my mom an iPad, apparently AI is unavoidable in setup. To finish setup, you must agree to Apple AI.
They are all doing it together. I can't keep track of who owns what, perhaps "they" are all actually owned by the same megacorp.
This can be turned off after setup.
It's stupid that this is the feature they decide to force considering using an Apple account during setup is still optional.
Clever, so you have to agree to the terms either way.
I am still punishing the iPad and have yet to flip it back over.
AI WILL LEARN SOME MANNERS UNDER THIS ROOF
and thank you, mom always said I was a clever boy!
