Summary
I believe users of all browsers and social media platforms should have an option to turn off AI in applications like, Snapchat, Instagram/Facebook, Google, Firefox etc etc I believe AI is making us dumber and lazier it's also bad for the environment. However, there are some key advantages to the use of AI. That's why it should be a mandatory feature to turn off AI. You could be using AI that is locally run this is the safer and better option.
