User level: Level 1 (4 points)How can I completely turn off Apple Intelligence as well as any data collection for AI training by Apple on iOS 27? Toggling off Siri, for example, does not appear to turn off “learn from this app” option for all different apps… this seems to be quite badly misleading.

"Learn from this App" has been there long before Apple Intelligence and are not the same thing. The "Learn from this App" setting was first introduced in iOS 9, 11 years ago. There is no master switch for this toggle and you will need to turn it off for each app. No, turning off Siri does not toggle this off for every app, and it never has.

You can't turn off AI in iOS 27. It is now hard coded into iOS and is integral. You don't have to use it and if your turn off Siri, you'll also not be able to use CarPlay.
