🌐 Web query:
site:support.apple.com macOS 27 Photos Clean Up requires Apple Intelligence turn on setting
💡 Result:
Yes. Apple identifies **Clean Up in Photos as an Apple Intelligence feature**. In macOS 27, Apple says Apple Intelligence is available on eligible Macs running macOS 27 in supported languages and regions; Clean Up also requires a Mac with **M1 or later**. ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-ie/121429))
The support pages establish that Clean Up depends on Apple Intelligence, but don’t explicitly give the setting’s exact name or path. On macOS 27, try **System Settings → Apple Intelligence & Siri** and check that Apple Intelligence is enabled. ([support.apple.com](https://support.apple.com/en-asia/guide/photos/pht5c38b77c5/mac))

State the Apple Intelligence prerequisite.
The Photos menu path only identifies where to find Clean Up. Apple documents that Clean Up requires Apple Intelligence, so keeping the feature does not make it usable when Apple Intelligence is off. Tell users to enable Apple Intelligence in System Settings.
