I do not want or need AI for this. Ever. Please provide an option so it so it never shows up again.

I can provide information about our new beta technology (Intuit Assist), topataco. Currently, the option to disable the AI assistance is unavailable. This feature is intended for new users to guide them in using QuickBooks Online.

 

As of this moment, you can choose to click the Ignore button, or not to click the Intuit Assist button. This prevents the AI from auto-inputting information on the fields.

 

To help our product cater more needs of our customers, I suggest sending feedback to our team. The product development team will review your suggestion for future enhancement.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. On the upper right corner, go to the Gear icon.
  2. Look for the Profile column, select Feedback.
  3. Type in your comments or suggestions.
  4. After entering, click Next.

 

I've added this article if you wish to customize your QuickBooks display preferences: Customize your QuickBooks display.

Thank you for your reply. Please consider an option to permanently disable. Generative AI has hurt my company by using unauthorized artwork and it is fraught with incorrect information. This sort of technology shouldn't be rolled out so haphazardly.

It's so insulting that it's not opt in. I just got an email that my yearly subscription is increasing by $400 to include these great new AI features, which despite my significant ethical issues with AI I attempted to use since apparently paying for them isn't optional??? And the AI bill and invoice entry features are terrible. They make enough mistakes and leave enough fields blank that I have to go over every bill manually every time. So I'm paying $400 extra a year, not to mention the environmental toll all AIs take, for a machine that's worse at basic data entry than my kids would be.
