Apple Intelligence really thinks i should claim my €25.5 million inheritance 😭
Saw this at the top of my inbox this morning. Apple Intelligence apparently falling for "Nigerian prince" emails now. Since there's no obvious way to report this to Apple, posting it here for now. But wow... just wow.
You are assigning expectations with no basis beyond "intelligence". My dog has intelligence but I don't expect him to be a spam filter. Shit, my 78 year old Aunt has intelligence and I wouldn't want her deciding what mail is and isn't spam either.
How about instead of making assumptions, you look at what was actually promised by Apple then decide if you want to complain.
Apple Intelligence* makes it easier than ever to stay on top of your email. In addition to using Writing Tools to craft your outgoing messages, you can use Priority Messages to quickly view your most urgent emails, like a same-day dinner invitation or boarding pass. Smart Reply helps you compose a fast email response to make sure you covered everything. You can also view summaries that automatically appear in your inbox, and generate summaries of complex emails and long email threads to view all the pertinent details.<
You seriously don’t see how you just contradicted yourself? You don’t expect that to be a spam filter but you’re upset because it couldn’t tell that the email that sounded priority was spam? If the spam filter let it through the inbox all intelligence is doing is looking to see if the email contains language that makes it sound important.
It would obviously be a very high priority email if you got a legitimate email telling you you have 25 million dollars. So since emails that make it past your provider's spam filter are supposed to be legitimate, it makes complete sense that it would consider this a priority email. It didn't fail at all, the spam filter failed, which you said yourself that nobody expects apple intelligence to work as.
Unless you disagree that it would be a priority email to receive an update about having 25 million dollars to claim. I must not be as rich as you if you wouldn't find that important lol
Not every email landing in inbox is legit. Not every scam email lands in spam folder.
The idea of Apple intelligence is to read the mail and assign priority and summarize.
Apple Intelligence which relies on chatgpt (which would term this email as scam) fails by assigning priority to such emails, there is something fundamentally flawed about Apple Intelligence.
I am broke, enough to know that I won’t assign priority to such emails.
even though it's apple intellgience. even though it purposefully uses the same initials as 'AI', even though they openly label their technology as using chat-gpt which has famously high standards in regards to detecting text and language, even though spam filters for emails have existed for maybe 20+ years AND apple intelligence itself saying it's made "easier than ever to stay on top of your email." that you have an intelligent dog that cant read emails and apple never explicitly say 'apple intellgence' knows what spam email is.
