Received an email from State Farm today with a shitty AI "summary" at the top (gmail)

I reached out to agent's office and was told State Farm does not send that, so it must be a gmail setting.

Sure enough, they've started doing this.

Open Gmail, click on the menu (3 dots or 3 bars), go into settings and turn that shit off.

Gawd, how annoying.

Living my best AI-free life here!

I have "smart features" turned off, so I guess that's the same thing. I don't see an "AI" option at all. eppur_se_muova Feb 2026 #1

Thanks for making me aware of this, in any case.

Today is the 1st time I've been afflicted with this bs, & thought others here might have the same disturbing experience.
