Is there a way to op-out of this on iOS and macOS? That's really scary.

ML and AI on OS-level should run decentral on the device itself, and don't leak data at all. The spirit of the 1990s was that way, and we older desktop software works fine that way (even on Pentium 1 hardware), so it would run like a piece of cake on a modern smartphone.

The "differential privacy" technology may sound good, but without an independent audit who knows how good it works.
