How do I turn off invasive AI reading and summerizing incoming emails

I resent invasive monitoring of my emails by AI. I do not want anyone, man or machine, reading my emails and summarizing the contents. Emails are private. At least they used to be. Also AI auto corrects what it thinks I meant and not what I meant...again invasive and useless. Can AI be turned off?????????

  • For email Summaries, go to  > System Settings > Apps > Mail, and turn it off.
