Issues with "Validating Ingredients"

I am using Adobe Premiere version 26.5.2. Whenever I attempt to export a video that includes content created with AI, a "Validating ingredients" box appears. Even though it reaches 100%, it takes an additional 5 to 10 minutes before the actual export process begins—a very long wait. I recently updated to version 26.5.2. This appears to be a mandatory feature imposed by Adobe Premiere; however, it should not be compulsory. Users should have the choice of whether or not to validate AI-generated content. What is the point of optimizing workflows, using a high-end graphics card, and having plenty of RAM if I am forced to endure such a long delay due to an "ingredient validation" process that the system runs without my authorization? Please fix this issue.
