User level: Level 1 (12 points)Apple Intelligence was not installed on my MacBook Air M2 after upgrading from MacOS 26 directly to MacOS 27.2. Is there any way to reinstall 27.2 to correct this?
I also have the same issue with my iPhone 15 Pro Max when I upgraded from iOS 26 to iOS 27.2

What do you see when you go to Settings ➜ Siri?
Make sure your MacBook Air and iPhone 15 Pro Max are set to English and to a Region where Apple Intelligence and Siri AI are supported.

There is no longer an entry for Apple Intelligence in Settings, it is now only Siri, to access the new Siri AI option go to Settings ➜ Siri and enroll in the Siri AI (Beta).

Other Apple Intelligence features are now built into the different options on Mac and iOS and don't have individual switches to turn them on or off.

Thanks for the fast response. It does show Siri as in your screen pics. I was looking for "Apple Intelligence & Siri" because that is what Spotlight sent me to verify the install.
So I guess it is setup correctly. Now on to my next issue in a new thread with Time Machine failing.
Thanks again.

There is a bug in Spotlight though since it still thinks that setting should show Apple Intelligence & Siri

You're welcome.
Yes, if Siri AI shows up there, then it's working correctly.
