Crop tricked me into using some kind of credits, which I didn't want to do.

Cropping an image was a simple tool a year ago or so.  Now, when you select the area to crop, you have to very, very careful that your box doesn’t go beyond the bounds of the image. If it does, then AI wants to charge you money to generatively extend the image.  I have worked diligently to avoid triggering this generative extension, but just now I got lazy and I pressed click too fast, and now it is generating an image just a few pixels beyond the image.  Dear Adobe,  I want you to refund whatever credit you are going to charge me for this.   This is a deceitful way of shoving AI down people’s throat.   This kind of trickery is why so many people a sick of AI.

    I'm running into this with the latest update, and it’s total BS from Adobe!! Give us a way to turn it off.
