What does this mean?

Can anyone future elaborate on what this is or how it works?  Is anyone using this feature with Developer Options on?

Leave that alone! Get out of there!!😂😂😂. lol

I'm assuming the system pays attention to the apps you use most, act on & when you receive notifications based on that info it'll decide the order in which it's received & way you're alerted. Some will show on screen over an app, some just in the notification panel as an icon, etc.. 😎😎. Just a guess..

Google brought this out first in the 4th and last beta for their Android Q. It uses AI to set the priority of notifications. You won't be interrupted for things like an email from Facebook that the system doesn't think is important. "Gentle" notifications aren't shown in the status bar, they notify you and go away. Apparently you can toggle these adaptive notifications on and off and adjust them to your liking.
No I haven't used it yet but have been considering it. I may try it when I get time to play with it.

Adaptive Notifications

Android 10 had a whole lot of changes to how notifications work, with tweaks to sorting, more long-press actions, simpler alert options, and more. One of these changes was 'Adaptive Notifications,' a feature that showed up in Beta 4 and promptly vanished.
A new group for Adaptive Notifications appeared under the main Notifications settings, with two optional features. The first, 'Automatic Prioritization,' promised to not buzz your phone for what the OS deemed "lower-priority notifications," sort of like email apps that try to avoid notifications for spam mail and other non-important messages. The second feature added "suggested actions and replies" to notifications.

Both options disappeared in subsequent betas, but an 'Android Adaptive Notifications' APK remains in the final Android 10 release, along with an option in the Developer Options for picking another handler app.
