How to disable AI features across many services

I’ve been meaning to do this for Gmail. Easy instructions to follow. It’s annoying that we have to opt out of AI features, instead of opt in.

Can Directories Rise Again? from The History of the Web:

Search has bent in quality towards its earliest days, difficult to navigate and often unhelpful. And the remedy may be the same as it was a quarter century ago. It may be once again time for the surfers. Only different this time.

But for some people in power—whether that’s a boss, a self-styled authority figure, even a Partner—questions are dangerous. Questions suggest that maybe they don’t have all the answers, that maybe their decisions aren’t flawless, and that maybe, just maybe, there’s a better way of doing things.
