I just set up three Macs with no Apple accounts, not needed for intended use. They all work fine. Apple accounts are only needed if access to Apple services is desired.

The potential to "one shot" any request is plausible with the right context.

However, that would not make them intelligent. Humans require no training at all for calculators, as they are such intuitive instruments.
