constantly on CPU preview mode

[genik]

Is it possible to have illustrator constantly on CPU preview mode, instead of GPU preview mode?

Go to Preferences > Performance and deselect GPU Performance.

Just curious. Why do you want to do this?

Are you using AI with an M1 Mac in Native mode?? I bought mine with a beefed up GPU. Wasted money as far as AI is concerned. Have you tried resizing a container with GPU active? The blinking/jumping result is enough to initiate an epileptic seizure. The only solution is to shut the GPU pref off. Using the GPU pref is currently next to useless on an M1 in Native mode.
