The issue isn’t storing it as plain text (although that is a serious problem). The problem is these types of behind the scenes processes like Siri or Cortana or a LLM take up processing power that I want to use for other things. Most of the time these things are impossible to disable so it’s wasting system resources for something I don’t want or need.
i mean historically, this isnt new. CPUs and GPUs will always introduce some new compute unit thats highly specific workloads using up die space. take cpu examples like AVX2, AVX512 for example, or Aegia Physx hardware, or Nvidias Tensor units to allow for tech like raytracing/upscaling or all hardwares video decoder/encoders.
Companies will push the changes on their hardware regardless, and they will only remove it if it interferes with a core design of a chip (e.g Intel P/E cores disable AVX512 because E cores do not have AVX512 units) or gets i a point that barely anyone uses it.
if you never want to buy into thia kind of tech, then choose to never buy whoever is the most popular cpu/gpu in a market, because people at the top invent new things to further the gap between them and everyone else, as they are usually first and foremost, publically traded companies.

That’s fair.
Hopefully there’s a toggle to turn it off.
You can turn off Siri and I believe the other ai features are opt in.
