Turn off Apple Intelligence Writing Assistance

OS: Golden Gate


I have done everything I can to turn off Apple Intelligence/Writing Assistance on my computer, yet I still get the AI symbol when I highlight a large group of text on my computer, whether it be within Safari, or in an independent, 3rd Party Application. I want to turn it off. I've already toggled off System Settings -> Screen Time -> Content & Privacy -> Siri -> Writing Assistance, and yet it keeps popping up.


I just want this feature off, I'm on my last straw with Apple at this point.

I see the key phrase in your screenshot:

”Extensions are disabled by your organization.”


Your Mac is being managed by some organization. Seek assistance from the appropriate IT representative.
