    I love the jank message summaries

    I got one the other day that summarized a message from my 75 year old mom as a conspiracy theory. I can’t imagine having the confidence to mark a clients message as a conspiracy theory even if it 100% was.

    Here’s the summary:

    Conspiracy theory about government agencies being privatized for profit.

    Original text:

    They would turned it into a private owned so they can profit from it. That’s why they changing all the government agencies and turn it into profitable businesses for them. See how all the big corporations are lined up with trump.

      Surely people see this for what it is, a censorship mechanism that relies on people’s laziness and preference for convenience for effectiveness.

      Even if Apple Intelligence were good, why would anyone in their right mind allow a middleman to interfere with their ability to communicate with others?

      And people wonder why I have no interest in getting a newer phone with an AI thing on it.

        Visual Voicemail has been a thing for literal decades. The older ai models (before they were called such) were even more jank

      That’s hilarious! I’m glad you and your Conspiracy Theorist Trademark Mom can get a laugh out of it!

      I guess technically it’s still a theory even if it’s true

        Yeah like I can’t say it’s not a conspiracy theory (that I agree with) but marking it is still very… bold?
