There should be a way for us to actually disable all AI from our phones. I have creative studio disabled so why do I still get a little red dot notification on my keyboard that won't go away unless I enable the app and go clear the notifications.
If I disable an app, I dont want to interact with it. I don't want to see it, it shouldn't be shoved in my face, right in my keyboard. A big reason I choose Samsung over Apple or any other brand is because of the customization. It's not very customization, or user, friendly to keep trying to make me use features I don't like and don't want.
Samsung keyboard's AI integration is fairly aggressive and those little red bubbles are stubborn. When they add new features, they make you go click through every newly added AI menu to get rid of it.
I personally find that Gboard is less intrusive in this specific way.
As for disabling AI altogether, Opting out of AI is currently only available in the form of disabling the undesired functions in Settings > Galaxy AI.
Full removal is unlikely to ever be an option as Galaxy AI is now considered an integral part of One UI, and Gemini will play a much larger, more agentic role in Android 17/One UI 9.
If you truly want full and complete removal of AI on the devices you own, you will need to consider a phone capable of running a de-Googled OS.
Not possible in the US, bootloader is locked. This is the last time I aqquirred US version (s26u) , Had French, Vietnamese, Polish & German regional version before and I felt free. But it's double edge sword You gain something and you lose something. Keyboard? there are so many, gboard is Google so it's a scratch for me. M$ SwiftKey is pretty good, I love Typewise, Yandex and few more. Changing on the fly
