As far as I can tell, you have to completely disable all keyboard shortcuts or else when you press A anywhere that isn't the search box you get dumped immediately into their AI assistant prompted with whatever you already had in the search bar.

It didn't track me more than a few pennies, but on principle the several times that happened made me angry.

Apparently some of the news views in search are also easy to dump you into AI land. There's community CSS add on that hides all that stuff now, but I wish the company would let me just disable the AI traps.
