      @annika they recently _promised_ a single switch that you can use to turn off all AI features, but I don't think they actually shipped it yet.

        @annika My ops manager at a project is a master of summaries of loong support/issue tickets. Google's AI summaries at top of the email summarizing his summaries are usually longer, and often wrong.
