Where to find Apple Intelligence after updating Macbook Pro?

I am using a MacBook Pro with an M2 processor. The region is set to the United States, the language is English (U.S.), and the Siri language is also English (U.S.). Despite this, the Apple Intelligence feature did not arrive with the new update. What could be the reason for this?

It worked for both my Ipad and iPhone but not the Mac. What could be the reason for this?

It turns out that Apple Intelligence is only available for MacBooks with an M1 processor or above. Furthermore, to receive the beta version (but hopefully not the full version) you need to set your device language and Siri's language to English (US) which can be found in System Settings under Language and Location and Apple Intelligence & Siri in the main menu.

Sounds like your Mac was intended for China distribution so that is the expected behavior. Makes no difference the Region/Language on those devices. With the appropriate Mac and Language/Region, you will have the option a shown here:
