Why I am I being nagged to enable Generative AI after I disabled it?

I disabled the AI "assistant" in Adobe for the simple reason that I do not want it. So why is it that, only a few days later, I'm looking at a pop-up with a big black ENABLE button and the message "You previously disabled generative AI features in Acrobat. By clicking Enable, you'll be able to use these features again"? I didn't accidentally toggle the off switch, which should be obvious, because I had to wade through a bunch of menus to get rid of this enabled-by-default "feature." I made a very deliberate decision to disable AI in Adobe Acrobat because, again, I do not want it. So enough with the Sam-I-Am routine. Stop trying to cram your slopbot down my throat. I don't care if the first hit's free. I said no
