Here's how you remove Google AI from your mobile devices.

...

Instead of being in settings its in the google app. Also, google, not chrome. Icon is a G, not the circle thing. Click on your pfp to open a menu

From there, go Settings > Gemini > Digital Assistants > Switch to Google Assistant. This disables Gemini, google's Al assistant, and switches you back to the old one. We aren't done yet.

Go back to Settings. From there, we go Settings > Google Assistant > scroll to find General > Google Assitant on/off > turn it off

They really tried their best to make it a pain, but you can eventually disable it. Holding the power button on your phone still pulls up a menu and asks you to turn it back on, but this is the least intrusive you can make it.

Applies to all non-apple phones afaik. For sure Samsungs and Pixels but idrk about others

Edit: thank you my friend @/teeth-kid for confirming that this also works on Motorola

Thanks to all of you, I managed to crowdfund my last project! We now have a buttonmaker so my local artist and musician friends can make merch and support their own work! I'm working on a new project to recycle trash into useful tools, please share it around!

My next project is to fully fund this plastic bottle to 3D printing filament recycler. I'll print the STL models in this kit and then assemble the machine with the rest of the parts. I'll then collect discarded bottles and use them to make filament. I'll print useful objects for my community!
