Am I the only one disgusted by AI being pushed into HA?

This is our platform of OFFLINE, LOCAL ONLY smart homes. I don’t want ChatGPT integration.

Edit: I’m glad it’s optional for now. But just its integration gives me the ick.

Though AI gets many people excited, there are still people who would prefer not to have this technology in their smart homes. We want to accommodate everyone’s choices, whether that’s to use AI or not. These features won’t appear unless you set up an AI integration and configure some specific settings

I work for a megacorp that's a Microsoft AI partner and I fucking despise every bit of it. It's all AI-slop dog shit, and we are staring to have issues with the less than optimal folks causing issues with it .
