I think this is the correct approach on a phone. I don't want AI front-and-center. I want it in the background quietly making everything better. To me, that's a much more useful form of AI.

And I want it turned the fuck off, quietly not doing anything with my personal shit.

I want to reach for my tools when I want to use them.

I'll argue that face recognition, event detection and share recommendations are nice features.

They are all done locally on your device for the last decade, at least.

Not to be too, um, dismissive, but one of the things we discussed in my 300 level class called _Artificial Intelligence_ in college 2 decades ago was regular expressions, so, that ship has sailed far over the horizon.
