Well this is why, as an enthusiastic AI user, even I usually want to disable intrusive AI!

If it's popping up in some random product I don't pay for I can only assume it's such a shitty model that it's probably not worth talking to.

(Exception: my bank has replaced its shitty phone tree with an AI chatbot. This is faster and the model has a "transfer to a human" tool. It's perfectly capable of following its playbook, determining that I need a human, and putting me in touch with one. So actually I started with "now I've gotta debase myself by talking to a fucking 32B Chinese LLM" but ended with "oh that was great actually").
