How to disable third-party ads and AI suggestions in Keynote?

How do I turn off ads for other companies when I am trying to create my own text? I am a writer and do not need, nor want AI help here. If I did, I would not want it from a company with such weird people with questionable morals at the top. (Search for AI safety/Harry Potter fan fic if you want a rabbit hole.)



I spent a great deal of funds on an M5 MacBook Pro. I feel I shouldn't have to see ads for other companies in my creative tool that I paid for Keynote has traditionally been part of the software you get with a Mac. I don't want my blank canvas here cluttered with these six distracting words. I can't make them go away.


Update - looks like at least open AI part is gone in latest update. I still want this gone too.
