Entangling the whole system with the tentacles of an AI squid does not quite equate to "making no money from you or me".

What is the profit angle? So what? That is just them paying for devs to write that up for total waste of money unless they sell me a subscription to make money off of me. How are they making more money? Will they sell me a siri subscription? That is one way, but that isn't what this is doing. This is literally negative brand fuel turfing this update on this forum in particular. They should want to hide it under the rug and not scare more people off to linux instead of macos for their home compute. Macos is hanging on a thread already. normies don't buy macs anymore, they buy ipads. The division is on a thread and spending on turfing makes no sense here. Just alienates the remaining crop of users and buys no newer ones.
