I think part of this issue is that people expect a lot from Apple. They exposed the technology to many people who aren't early adopter types, but more "mainstream" types. With an entirely new product and brand, the tolerance for bugs is higher, but here the expectation is that of other Apple products. In the end, even if the features aren't perfect, they still raise the bar for competitors, so Apple is less in danger of being disrupted. Also, there is plenty of AI driven features that people do not talk about, but those "just work" so you don't see them as well.

Everything I've seen with notification summaries for instance has given me the feelings of "wow I guess I'm really not missing much". LLMs as an answer engine has a big benefit that it feels fast and fluid even when its wrong (and many won't bother verifying) but with notification summaries most users in messaging contexts will eventually go back to the conversation and see the responses in full detail. Mistakes in that context are identifiable by mainstream users as having made the product worse.
