I know, use signal. I have some family members who I cannot get to use signal, so we continue to use telegram.

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Edit: Only for desktop
Holy shit, thank you! I use Forkgram on my phone and it has a setting to disable it, but on desktop I couldn't find a way to do it until I saw your comment. Thanks!
Interesting, the iOS app does not have an advanced settings button.
Sorry, that was only on desktop, on iOS and android there is no such feature yet.
For telegram you have an open issue on their tracker that you can vote for.
A quick search didn't really give me any results of iOS forks that allow disabling AI, so either none have it, or they don't mention it directly...
Thanks
Can't find it on android either. Telegram has been doing canary releases of updates, so the path provided by izheil@ani.social probably doens't exist in all versions.
Sorry, that was only on the desktop version, on both iOS and android there isn't such option yet.
They have an open issue on their tracker that you can vote for.
Alternatively you can do as @yesterday@lemmy.ca mentioned and use Forkgram while they decide to implement the feature.
