  • Thank goodness!

    I hate that AI was forced on my older site without asking. I'm considering removing Jetpack because of this. This plugin thankfully turns it off.

  • Thank you!!

    Does just what it says - gives you control of AI features being enabled or disabled. Why in the world Wordpress did not include by default is puzzling, apparently they do not want us to have control of our own blogs any more. I for one do NOT welcome robot overlords they can F right off.
