Many Snapchat users have noticed a new addition to their chat list: My AI. This artificial intelligence bot appears at the top of your conversations, but not everyone wants to interact with it. If you’re wondering whether you can disable or remove this feature, here’s what you need to know.
The My AI feature is currently being rolled out to all Snapchat users. Once it appears in your account, you’ll find it permanently positioned at the top of your chat list. Unlike regular friends on the platform, this bot cannot be completely removed from your conversations.
For users who want to save their friends’ content before making changes to their chat experience, tools like Snapchat story download can help preserve important memories and posts.
Why Can’t You Remove My AI?
When you attempt to manage My AI like any other contact, you’ll notice the options are limited. While regular friends can be removed through the “manage friendship” feature, My AI only allows you to edit its name. Snapchat has designed this bot to remain visible to all users as a permanent fixture in the chat interface.
But if you are a Snapchat+ subscriber, then you can unpin or remove this My AI.
Available Options to Minimize My AI
1. Turn Off Notifications
You can reduce the bot’s presence by disabling its notifications:
- Press and hold on My AI in your chat list
- Select “Chat Settings”
- Navigate to “Message Notifications”
- Turn off notifications to stop receiving alerts when the AI sends messages
2. Simply Ignore the Feature
The most straightforward approach is to avoid interacting with My AI entirely. The bot typically won’t send unsolicited messages unless you engage with it first. By leaving it alone, it should remain inactive in your chat list and will move down the order and practically disappear.
For now, users who find My AI intrusive must rely on the notification settings and avoidance strategy to minimize its impact on their Snapchat experience. Or you can become a Snapchat+ subscriber and you will be able to remove My AI.
