This has always been a huge part of the problem with Apple's strategy here -- you're asking app developers to become faceless back-end processors for information to be mined by Siri. If the future of phones is using AI assistants, then the future of apps is to be grist for the mill. Hard to envision a lot of app developers being willing to work extra hard to be fed into the wood chipper.

  Delayed or not, Apple’s proposed Intents-based Apple Intelligence features require a ton of buy-in from developers for it to be of any real use, and the incentives really aren't there — donating your app's content and functionality to enrich Apple’s AI alone, bypassing your UI, UX, branding, metrics, et al, to be delivered in a content soup alongside your competitors. A third party developer base that won’t even bother recompiling Netflix or YouTube for visionOS won’t care much for that
