Microsoft is currently adding artificial intelligence features to its applications one by one. The Edge browser also received an update for artificial intelligence. However, not every user is happy with this because artificial intelligence may transfer user data to Microsoft.
For other users, these features are nothing more than bloatware, unnecessary add-ons that only lead to memory and computing time wastage. However, you can easily disable the artificial intelligence features in Edge.
Enter edge://flags in the browser address bar and press “Enter.” Then type the characters AI-Organization in the “Search flags” field. Edge will now instantly display three experimental features:
“Enable creation (writing with artificial intelligence) on the web,” “Explain DevTools using artificial intelligence,” and perhaps “Allow Bing AI workspaces that have been created.” The toggle button next to each of these features is set to “Default.” Please select “Disabled” to turn off the features.

On the other hand, if you want to use artificial intelligence features once they are available, set the settings to “Enabled.”
