      Abbreviated version from article:

      How to opt out

      Opting out requires you to change settings in two places. To fully opt out, you must turn off Gmail’s “Smart features” in two separate locations in your settings.

      Step 1: Turn off Smart Features in Gmail, Chat, and Meet settings

      Step 2: Turn off Google Workspace Smart Features
