Neither. It's just moot as UKlanders already *have* intelligence.

Adendum: I recently upgraded my MBP laptop to 15.1.1 from 14.7 (I
think) and have had absolutely zero issues since doing so. I haven't
noticed anything "magical" nor "innovative" about the OS, yet, but
it's early days.
The download and upgrade ran itself while I popped out for milk. It
even rebooted and opened up all the previous windows (not "Windows"
with a big "W" as I don't have that on my Mac) and restarted Prime95
for me.
As a process, it's been just about the easiest upgrade I have ever
done.
All of my personalisation and settings and stuff were copied over, so
the little box even looks like she always has, which is cool.
I'm thinking of doing it to the Mini I was given but she's on 14.3 so
I'm considering giving her 14.7 then 15. Is that a neat idea or a
waste of effort?
Thanks for all the help in years past and a Merry Christmas and Happy
New Year wishes.

macOS 15.2 should see the introduction of a more (ahem) intelligent OS. Seasons greetings to you and here’s to a more peaceful new year :)

RC2 now available so I guess we should expect the formal release of iOS and iPadOS 18.2 plus macOS 15.2 within a few days now.

This window tiling stuff in Sequoia - can it be disabled? One day a week or so
I have to use a Win-11 machine, and its tendency to tile all the windows on the screen if you let one of them get near the top edge of the screen is only one defect that makes me want to shoot it, but its perhaps the most irritating.

Since reading the above I've been experimenting with tiling.
At least here, the window tiles if you drag the pointer *past the edge* of the
screen. If the pointer stays within the screen area, no tiling. Unless you know this - and it isn't explained in help, as far as I can see - it all seems
a bit random.

This may explain why some see, and are irritated by, it and others don't and wonder why it doesn't work (I was one).
YMMV, of course.

I don't know whether you are using Ventura, but Tips is there. Look in Applications. Certainly that is where it is located in Sequoia.
Going direct from Ventura to Sequoia has been something of a culture shock!
Obviously Tips is only for your current MacOS. As well as useful extras, it gives direct access to the relevant Mac User Guide.
I don't know when window tiling was first introduced, but after Ventura so you
won't have encountered it.
Old John.
