iOS really needs LLM-based notification filtering. This would take care of promotional notification spam overnight. It would even enable fine-grained user filtering like "notify when - someone is messaging me about plans for today."
Because Apple makes iOS, they could have a much more rigorous solution, like Google’s.
A nondeterministic, energy hungry classifier is inferior to writing a policy to define channels.
You really need both.
Channels are a great first level, and iOS absolutely needs to implement an Android-tier version of this.
But channels continue to be abused, even on Android. When all deterministic controls fail...
Secondly, channels are set by the developer (or platform). In an ideal world, I want to define whatever channels I care about, and turn them on/off at will.
