The one good thing is that the AI features are opt in, not opt out.

I'd prefer to have it as an add-on or integration you have to manually install, but I guess I'll survive with inactive bloatware.

While I fully agree with the opt-in sentiment, 95% of all core integrations are likely "inactive bloatware" on your instance, yet I don't see anyone complaining about that.

Last time I checked we were at around 1500 core integrations on the search page.
