Every Mac since macOS 13 (allegedly) ships a pair of daemons whose only purpose in life is to build a graph about who you are, whom you know, how those people are related to you and to each other, how you communicate with them, where you go, what you do and when. In this post, we look into how this system works and give you a tool to peek into your own graph.
No, it is definitely there and real, I deleted the databases and blocked them from being rebuilt on my mac yesterday. People can use LLMs to do useful work, especially if they already know what they are doing.
seriously. I can deal with an inept overly techy writer, but if you use the lying machine to mediate your communication, I can’t trust anything you say.
Automated messaging systems that send us important or relevant information have been around for quite a while now. Ignoring a message simply because of the way it was created is rarely wise.
Automated messaging systems have been deterministic but indeed, if more than just a short notice have been routinely ignored by most since the rise of e-mail and automated spam.
Delete ~/Library/IntelligencePlatform (or back it up to a different directory if you’re worried about things breaking and want to be able to put it back) then make an empty file in place of the directory with touch ~/Library/IntelligencePlatform
Good advice. Also for passer-bys if you get hit with the Operation not permitted bullshit, just make sure the app you’re using has Full Disk Access since this is considered a “protected folder”.
so this whole story is bullshit?

Maybe so, but if someone can’t be bothered to write it, I can’t be bothered to read it.
