color picker gets weird

Whenever the illustrator is turned on and the color picker is checked, the default value is not set to white black, but to white and dark gray. For your information, I am using the 2022 version, and I am not experiencing any other problems with colors.

It is probably because your RGB document once started as a CMYK document.

The values of the colors in your swatches panel are cmyk values converted to rgb.

Just create RGB documents based on RGB presets, like Art & Illustration.
