How to use Apple Intelligence without ChatGPT?

Make sure it’s turned off in System Settings➡️ Apple Intelligence & Siri ➡️ ChatGPT.

If it has already been setup, then click the switch to turn it off.

If it has not been set up, then it will just have a Set up button instead.

Also unless you actively invoke it when suggested, ChatGPT is not used.

Sorry but you cannot delete the option to use ChatGPT. You can only choose to not turnout it on or use it.

ChatGPT is not dangerous at all. You’ve been reading misleading or down right fake information about AI in general.

It's not really dangerous. Why do you ask?

It's a tool, it aids in doing the work as it's a large language model.

You are free not to use it, but you can't remove the option from Settings.

It's not active unless it's set up and you then invoke it.
