Feeling the same, and currently in process of dumbing down my tech and decoupling from major tech platforms. They really got us by the balls.
Long live open source!

I never really thought about just how personal Notepad is for me. Even the Notes app on my phone. I wouldn't want anyone to look through any of it. I write some embarrassing shit. Pointless backstories for my video game protagonists when they don't already have one. Drafts for important upcoming conversations. You name it. Get the fuck out of my space. Fortunately I'm still using Notepad++, but I'm sure Microsoft will slide its dick into that too, eventually.

Its not really AI its just a string manipulation program, that, rather pointlessly, summarises paragraphs. The sort of thing you see done in BASIC in old program listing books.
- Go to System -> Optional features and verify that Notepad is listed and if it isn't add it.
- Go to Apps -> Advanced settings for apps -> App executions aliases and disable Notepad.
- Enjoy the classic notepad again.
