Can we opt out of Apple Intelligence?

I'm being asked to update iOS on both my devices, but I don't want to use Apple Intelligence or any sort of generative AI features. Is this something that we can completely turn off or otherwise opt out of?

iPhone SE, iOS 18

The feature is opt-in. So, if you don't opt-in, it will not be loaded onto your device.


If you are actually using an iPhone SE, it doesn't support Apple Intelligence so you'll never see it on that phone.
