RemoveMacAI：可删除 Apple Intelligence 的 Mac 应用
一款名为 RemoveMacAI 的新 Mac 应用可帮助用户删除 Apple Intelligence 相关文件并回收磁盘空间。该工具最初在 9 月下旬以 Terminal 命令形式流行，如今变成带教程和分类开关的应用，可分别关闭 Siri AI、ChatGPT 扩展、写作工具、Image Playground 等组件。作者实测后回收了 11.7GB 空间，与开发者所称最多约 12GB 的说法基本一致。需要注意的是，该应用未经签名，macOS 默认会阻止其运行，需手动放行，并要安装一个自定义配置描述文件；开发者称不会关闭系统完整性保护（SIP），也不发起网络请求或收集遥测数据，且相关改动可以撤销。
对于磁盘空间紧张或不愿使用 Apple Intelligence 的用户，这类工具提供了回收空间的途径，但非签名分发方式也带来信任与安全方面的顾虑。
- A new app called RemoveMacAI can delete Apple Intelligence files
- Doing so can reclaim up to 12GB of storage space
- But it comes with some scary warnings that shouldn’t be ignored
Apple promises that its new Siri AI and Apple Intelligence tools can help improve your daily experience through the magic of AI. Many people aren’t convinced, though, and a new Mac app has been doing the rounds that promises to delete Apple’s AI for good — so I decided to take it for a spin to see what all the fuss was about.
Dubbed RemoveMacAI, the app originally gained popularity in late September. At that time, though, it was just a simple Terminal command, which — given the obvious security risks of entering unknown code into a utility as powerful as the Terminal — turned some people off.
Now, the same developer is back with a Mac app that is essentially a wrapper for the command. This makes it a lot easier to understand what you’re deleting and what you’re enabling when you use the app, with a built-in tutorial and clear toggles spread across several different tabs and categories.
