It's the whole point. They'll try to take over the AI brand by doing this.

"So what does AI actually stand for? "

"It stands for Apple Intelligence, of course!"

"Wow, Apple really is everywhere, they are so good and competent."

This will happen too often.

The worst part about this is us calling it "Apple intelligence" ironically will make idiots believe that to be correct.

yeah but then it doesn't make sense to refuse to call it AI.

It does, because now it's their own thing.

So instead of having what everyone else is having, they have their own and also hijack theirs, because Apple put the company name in it.
