RemoveMacAI
Strip Apple Intelligence from a Mac, see every change first, and undo it later
If you never asked for on-device AI, this gives back gigabytes of disk on macOS 27 without disabling System Integrity Protection or committing to a one-way change.
RemoveMacAI is a native app and command-line tool for Apple silicon Macs on macOS 27. It lists what it intends to change before it acts, then turns off Apple Intelligence features, analytics, ad tracking and nagging prompts, and asks Apple's own asset service to delete the downloaded models. Locked settings go through configuration profiles, and earlier values are written to a journal so every step can be reversed. SIP stays on. Install from a release, a script or Homebrew.
