Why are you shoving this AI garbage down our throats? If I wanted an AI assistant, I would install one. I do not want one. I do not want it to learn from my data. I don’t want it taking up space or using my CPU. I don’t want it making suggestions or hovering over my shoulder all the time. Please giv…

Leo can be disabled entirely via Group Policy: [image] Group Policy Note: Policy management is generally intended for IT/Network admins who use on-site tools to set browser policies on corporate-managed computers. You can use Windows Group Policy (or your preferred... …

While I have the technical ability to do this, I’m guessing a lot of people don’t. This should be as simple as any other option in the settings, or better yet, make it a plugin you have to install if you want it.

[image] ThatAintWorking: make it a plugin you have to install if you want it. This is something Brave has said they don’t want to do with any of their products. People have long been requesting it for Wallet, Rewards, VPN, etc. And now some are saying for Leo. They see it as vital to build it…

AI without data is just a static program. I have been a software engineer for 40 years and have dabbled with AI, ML, etc. for decades.

What is the policy to disable the AI? I don’t see anything that mentions Leo or AI in the brave://policy list. The web page you mention has BraveAIChatEnabled as a policy but setting that to 0 or 1 makes no difference.

@ThatAintWorking , Can you tell me how you configured the policy? It is admittedly not intuitive but I can assist you if I know how you went about creating the policy. I suspect it might be in the wrong directory, as I’ve done this myself. This would explain why it does not appear in the brave://pol…

It should be an option one can decide to INSTALL and not a tech-class to get rid of it in a way which just hides this monster but it still works in the backgrounds and steals our search requests !

The option should be that one who wants it can install it - and not that its there and one most remove it !

Leo is already opt-in, it doesn’t communicate with Brave until you accept the privacy terms if I am not mistaken. Brave comes with quite a few features that not everyone wants, most of them embedded in the browser but opt-in to be enabled. It has a torrent client, IPFS, an adblocker, Tor, VPN, Leo, …

AI SHOULD BE OPT IN NOT OPT OUT. I do not want AI. It is not useful. It makes the internet worse. How do I turn it off. PERMANENTLY not just on a single tab of search results. I NEVER want AI in my search results period. This is coming from someone who has actively developed LLM based products. G…
