Why YSK:
You may like these features or find them creepy, but the app doesn’t have direct network access.
Android System Intelligence is a system app on Android that is responsible for a whole host of smart features, including Live Caption, Live Translate, Now Playing, Smart Auto-rotate, and more. The app can be disabled or uninstalled at the cost of losing these features.
Personally I don’t enjoy having a Google app watching and listening all the time, so it was easy to disable it and ease my anxiety. (This doesn’t stop Google from being Google, but it does turn these features on or off, depending on whether they are useful or not)

Good idea, thank you for the tips on how to disable it. Nothing more annoying than someone offhandedly mentioning something I should do and providing no details or elaboration.
Okay, maybe that was harsh, but really, not even an app name or… literally anything?
Disabled. Thanks for the tip!
Ditto. Thanks!
Not present on GrapheneOS, but it is present on LineageOS with play services.
Thanks, was about to go look for it.
I already had this one disabled, if ya go to the play store you can uninstall any updates applied to it.
All of the features I find to to either unnecessary or flat out useless. Like keeping the screen on when I am looking at it? If I want screen off I will hit the fucking power button or flip it over and let the proximity sensor turn off the screen. Otherwise why should my screen turn off? For the majority of stuff AI is useless, train it to write code or work medicine or such. Ya know things that are useful to humanity rather than waste electricity stealing jobs.
