how to remove AI from my Firefox?
The AI chatbot is back in my sidebar. I did not opt in to this. I would prefer not to roll back to whichever version of Firefox is before the AI it's-a-feature-not-a-bug got wedged in; what other options do I have for permanently disabling AI?
Going to sidebar settings to hide the AI chatbot does not suffice. Evidence: I did that already, it has been undone, and I cannot now find the toggle in question.
Personally I vote for yanking it out of the main browser altogether, so people have to actively choose to install the AI chatbot add-on. But my question is about actions I can take myself.

besides removing the AI chatbot shortcut from the sidebar there is also a way to remove it.
from bottom of https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/ai-chatbot
In the sidebar, choose the settings icon (a Gear icon). In the Customize sidebar panel, uncheck the AI chatbot box in the Firefox tools section.
Those instructions are quoted from that FAQ page which last updated before the offending shortcut reappeared and the toggle findable via those instructions disappeared.
