Would you pay $20 a month for Apple AI on the Mac mini?

[TheRealAlex]

I can eventually see AI features becoming a MUST have. Heck the free story writing it does now for me is game changing. But what could Apple AI do on a Mac Mini for $20 a month I feel like Apple is roping people in with the Mac Mini.

 

[GDF]

Not yet I would not. I know it is really basic so far, but don’t see any advantage to the current Apple AI. On latest Beta too.

 

[Fishrrman]

No. Absolutely not.

 

[Donar]

Currently, I see no usecase worth 20$ a month for me.

 

[UltimateSyn]

No, and MacRumors doesn't allow one-word responses.

 

[tranceking26]

Nope, but I’m doing fine without AI anyway

 

[hise]

No, there are plenty of AI tool options out there. I really hope Apple doesn't focus too much on AI at the expense of its actual product development.

 

[pooryou]

I would be more likely to pay not to have them.

It would need a killer feature. And I mean killer.

I’m struggling to imagine what this could possibly be, given that ‘AI’ isn’t really exciting technology and only serves to be a tool occasionally. And as for generative technology, it’s literally just learning from patterns.

So no I wouldn’t pay for any AI service from any company right now. I’m glad that Apple has taken a more cautious approach and made the features more useful, even if they are reigning it back compared to other companies.

I have NOT seen any must have AI feature, much less one I would pay a monthly fee for.
