Not that I’m aware of, and neither do I care. I don’t use nor do I plan to turn on Apple Intelligence. You can visit the relevant section in System Settings yourself and peruse to your satisfaction the comprehensive explanations and links they make available.

This is the stupidest feature to be mad about. Why go through all the trouble of creating Private Cloud Compute and ensuring every request is private, to then add a separate visible feature to get a report of your activity? It would be significantly cheaper and easier to simply not having gone through the effort and log everything like every other provider does. The reporting feature is for you. It is so you know what was sent and can make informed decisions. It is a feature that adds transparency. It gives you more control over your data than if it didn’t exist.

Clearly Apple did a poor job of communicating what the feature does. But rallying about it will only make them less likely to add other transparency features in the future. Save your breath and complain about the things they do do wrong. There are plenty of those to pick from.
