I'm actually surprised how much now I'm reaching for Apple Intelligence as a thing to play and build on top of because of its freeness :) I have it summarizing articles for me, a task I thought I'd only want at a minimum Claude Sonnet doing, but alas, I'm not caring as much as I thought about Claude's much better quality over Apple's on device models version. For non anecdotal evidence, I saw people balking at the price of having to put more tokens/credits towards using AlliHat (the Safari extension I have out there for Claude). And so all I did was put Apple Intelligence as an alternative into it, and my conversion rate has tripled. Still measuring this out but I'm becoming more bullish on just using the free tokens we get from our apple devices.
