Get rid of prompts to use Generative AI
I am annoyed and distracted by the constant prompts to use Adobe's Generative AI feature. I do not want this feature. I have disabled the feature. But I still see a brightly colored button advertising it every time I open Adobe. What is worse, when I try to do a simple search, I get another prompt encouraging me to use Generative AI. I already pay $20/month for Acrobat. I should not have view ads on software I am paying for. But Adobe repeatedly forces me to view what is essentially an ad for an feature I do not want. It's distracting and interferes with my work. There should be an option for users to disable AI, after which we can simply use the software to read documents and get our work done without any pop-ups or notifications.

Please, please do this. It's distracting, and somewhere between pointless and actively harmful on the vast majority of PDFs I read.
People frequently use Acrobat for vitally important documents where all the details matter. To give a sample of the past month, I've used Acrobat for government-distributed voting instructions, technical manuals, and information-dense study guides. "Summaries" of these documents will necessarily elide important details at best, and potentially misrepresent vital information at worst.
While I'm sure there exist legitimate use-cases for this tool, they will never be appropriate for the sort of documents I use Acrobat to view. This is seriously the number one thing pushing me away from Acrobat and towards a more stripped-down PDF reader.
