Disable AI Features in Google Chrome
Documentation/References
Versions 121 and later of Google Chrome include built-in AI-powered features such as tab organizer, theme creations, and an AI writer. Using AI-powered features in Google Chrome will create statistical data that will be sent to Google. This script will disable the AI-powered features in Google Chrome, which not only increases privacy but also performance.
