"I know chatgpt is bad but you just don't really have any choice" you literally do. Don't use it. Have some moral backbone.

it's been like 2 years. i havent touched it. never needed to. "you don't really have a choice," are you so swift to forget the recent past? Bitch i still use itunes to download mp3s to so i have them forever and any song i want, then my sister burns them to CDs. When boycotts rolled out my other sister got no thanks to scan what products we shouldn't buy. i still use corded headphones not because "its older" but because it's easier. a fool criticizes those who buy candles 200 years after the invention of the electric light until the power goes out. become ungovernable. you are not immune to propaganda. you've never had Chatgpt forced upon you, the only thing forced upon you is the idea that Chatgpt is forced upon you. why claim you need something today that you didn't need yesterday. little bitch.

Google has once again force-enabled AI into everyone. Get rid of that shit by:

If you have more than one Gmail account on your app, you have to do this for all account indiviudally. You go to settings→[nnn]@gmail→manage workspace smart features

(This is according to my Android app)

There's actually two different AI settings to turn off for Gmail. There are the settings that are under 'Google Workplace Smart features', and there's an additional one above it just called 'Smart Features'.

Turning off the settings under the 'Google Workplace Smart Features' doesn't seem to affect your inbox. But if you turn off that top 'Smart Features' option, you can no longer use the different inbox categories that Gmail would default sort emails to.

With Smart Features enabled:

With Smart Features Disabled:

It's really shitty that they've tied those inbox categories into the AI stuff. I turned Smart Features off, and now my phone is being inundated with notifications for a lot of the emails that would have gone in those categories. Previously, I would only get notifications for emails that end up in the main inbox when my notification settings were set to 'All'.

There is a way to create your own sorting labels (like the one I'd been using for Dracula Daily in the screenshot above), but they don't quite work the same way as the inbox categories. If you create a label, you'll be able to view only the emails you set to be categorized underneath it, but those emails will still show up underneath the main inbox, too.

Say you create a new 'Social' label for social media notifications to replace the Social category Inbox. If you click the 'Social' label, you would see all the emails that are filtered to go there, in addition to those same emails showing up in the main inbox. With the inbox categories enabled (and now AI features too), you would only see social emails in the Social inbox, and they would not show up under the main inbox, nor would you get notifications for them by default.

If you do want to go the label route and create your own, here's a link on how to do so. It can be done using a computer or through the Apple apps, but it won't work in the Android app (which makes zero sense to me).

There might be a way to play with the app notification settings so they're more filtered, but from what I see initially, it's not promising.

If you were relying on 'Important First' sorting for your inbox or 'High Priority Only' for notification settings, those are disabled when the AI feature is disabled as well.

(I can edit this later to add alt ids to the images when I'm not on my phone)

Thank you so much for this detailed addition, this change has been pretty enraging. The inbox categories had nothing to do with AI, but they've combined them to make your experience worse for no reason.

“No and no” —

I don't know which of you needs to hear this but "narc" is not short for "narcissist" when someone calls you a "narc" for snitching they are calling you a "narcotics officer"

technically narc isnt even short for narcotics officer its just cant for Cop, I believe Roma in origin

I read years ago in a book that it was derived from nakk, Romani for nose, as in someone who always has their nose in other people's business

ITS DERIVED FROM "NARCO" AS IN "NARCOTICS" WHAT FUCKING BOOK

Okay you know what pulling back on my derision because i can see how this mistake would be made but narc and nark are etymologically unrelated

Etymology is always doing some shit like this

Convergent evolution.

On the right, the same character is seated in an elaborate dress, with feathered wings, in front of a birdcage covered in sparkle. This drawing is labelled "30th fanart of the character. This is how you know you're cooked". /end id]

alright alternate route for people who have problems (i understand)

I NEED TO GET SAPPIER I NEED TO GET CORNIER AND CHEESIER WITH MY ART. I NEED TO DRAW STRAIGHT. GODDAMN. SLOP. THE WORLD IS CRUEL AND THIS IS ALL WE HAVE LEFT.

I love that the modern-day tumblr post equivalent of chain emails only requires me to reblog a relatively pleasant image instead of forward an email to a bunch of my friends and family members to quell my raging anxiety.

Reblog to give your mutuals a mini pumpkin in the palm of their hands. 🎃
