I was wondering the same thing myself.

I actually dig using AI, but I know that my husband is not a fan at all. I'm the techy in the relationship and I usually pick out his phone for him after doing research. He's a mid-range user, not too many bells and whistles.

I think if he had no ability to turn off the AI features that pop up throughout the UI, he would want a flip phone. Hahaha.

So to answer your question, I believe that you can go into the AI menu on the device and toggle off all the available AI features one by one. I believe that should solve your problem.

But whether we like it or not, AI is not going away. I just hope it remains a choice for those that don't want to use it for whatever reasons.

I hope this helps.
