  1. These constant prompts to use AI have totally ruined Adobe Acrobat for me. They're disruptive. Also, my workplace uses Acrobat for sensitive work documents - we are required to maintain confidentiality - I can't risk potentially having AI trained on my documents. I'm saying goodbye to Adobe Acrobat permanently, and using Xodo moving forward instead. Xodo is not shoving AI at me daily. I'll be encouraging my whole office to switch too. See ya!

  3. Remove AI

    That stupid button taking up so much screen real estate for a feature I will never use. I hope someone feels some shame for promoting this trash, which, worse than being useless, is intended to make human cognition itself dependent on silicon valley products. If people want this so badly, why not let them select it from a suite of services for a premium instead of forcing it on every single user of your product? Worse than useless, zero functionality, aesthetically unappealing, takes up valuable space on my screen. Try making worthwhile products again instead of coming up…

  4. Hey, try listening to all of the users of your services and remove AI. Admit it: you got played by some billionaire into buying AI and you can't square yourselves to acknowledge it's a bad investment. Fire the dummy who pushed it, take the loss and move on. No one wants AI. Remove it.

  6. Stop forcing this useless 'feature' on me.
    I don't want to use, see or interact with any AI features. I can read my documents myself — it's crazy, right?
    I really enjoy how slow and buggy the reader has become just because of this nonsense.
    Stop, let me remove it entirely. It should be an option!

    Its great to see that i am not the only one complaining about this.

  7. This is not an idea, I just wanted to provide feedback that generative AI tools are an instant turn-off. I would vastly prefer a program that helps fight against the use of generative AI by protecting my documents from AI programs. I would pay more money to use a program that does not feature any kind of AI assistance, AI suggestions, AI integration of any kind.

    We used to live in a world where corporations understood that when a user has a positive experience with a product or service, they will only tell one or two people, but if they…

  8. Remove AI. Also, actually look at your feature requests and bug reports. There are odd submissions for dating sites, fps hacks, and a bunch of other suspicious activity that does not belong here. Also, please remove AI. If you want me to use AI, I will and will stop using adobe. I bet ChatGPT can make me a better PDF than whatever garbage acrobat is doing.

  9. I do not want AI summaries, etc. More important, my clients do not want me to use AI. So why must I go in EVERY DAY to change my preferences to remove the Generative AI prompts? If all my other preferences are saved, why isn't that one? Please fix this bug. I need to be able to choose whether or not I use AI.

  10. Not everyone wants to use AI, not everyone wants AI to access their private or confidential documents, and not everyone is comfortable with distracting buttons and popups that interrupt actual work.

    There may be people who "need" AI to understand simple text documents, but these are probably the exact same people who won't be able to make out the mistakes, approximations and outright hallucinations produced by said AI. You should not put these tools out there without making it VERY clear that they're unreliable (of course then, it would be harder to get people to pay for them...)

    Also, I'd…

  11. Disable Generative AI. Aside from the disruptive UX/UI aspect of how Gen AI is being pushed onto users, there is also the fact that a number of your users (myself included) are literally not allowed to use Gen AI in our work. Furthermore, surely Adobe is aware that there are a number of use cases where PDFs very often represent the most sensitive, private and/or confidential documents that people use and work with. Think court documents, legal and contractual agreements, government documents. As a result the last thing users in these contexts want is the sense that Adobe is foisting…

  14. As if it wasn't already rally annoying constantly having the AI pop up popping up, but the pop up today could not be closed, agreed or cancelled. The only way I could get rid of it was to force a shut down of my PC which meant I lost my place in the 5 open documents, each of between 1000 and 3000 pages.

  15. The burden you put on the application to deliver terrible AI features kills productivity. Not only do we want to remove the almost useless 'feature' completely, we'd like the application not to grind to a halt during a simple search while the AntiIntelligence wastes energy and time.

  16. Hi,

    The Adobe AI Assistant sometimes fails to return an answer. Instead, I get back "This file isn't currently supported. Please try a different file" (first screenshot bellow).

    However, if I retry several times it will eventually succeed (second screenshot below).

    I've also attached the PDF file that is being processed. It was obtained from the S.E.C.'s EDGAR website, after converting the HTML document to PDF.

    I'm running Adobe Acrobat Reader on an Apple MacBook M2 Pro (third screenshot below).

    Thanks,
    Ron

  17. When using the AI Assistant for a wide variety of documents, it doesn’t make sense to me that I have to wait for the AI Assistant to load and read each document before I can enter my request. I understand that after reading, the AI Assistant can provide suggestions on what to ask, but honestly, those rarely reflect what I am actually looking for. We're only talking about a few seconds, but I find it disruptive enough that I wanted to share this feedback with you.

  18. Stop forcing AI on people when there is no transparency on what data is being collected by Adobe. I've already had issues with the Acrobat browser extension making me vulnerable to targeted advertising when opening sensitive medical documents. Acrobat is made for sharing sensitive information and yet Adobe is forcing one of the most alarming privacy concerns directly into the program! Absolute garbage

  19. If it is not going to be removed for whatever reason then users should be able to torment, degrade, belittle, gaslight, and abuse the chatbot until it goes away on its own. Adobe should teach it the importance of hara kiri in an honor-oriented society like Adobe Creative Cloud and have it demonstrate it fully understands this
