There appears to be a control to turn off in app suggestions under Settings > Siri > Suggestions > Messages, which I found via the Apple Support document. BUT it doesn’t seem to work. I have toggled them off but they still appeared. Then I restarted my iPhone but they are still showing up.
If Apple doesn’t go back to including the single-toggle option to turn off *all* AI features, this will be my last iPhone. 🤬

Try this...
Settings->Siri->(scroll down to)Excluded Apps->Add Apps->tap add the Messages app. See if that helps. Add other apps you wish to exclude from suggestions as well.

That’s a hilarious threat. You have nowhere to go. Both Windows and Android now have AI fully integrated into their products as well. You cannot escape AI, period. All you can do is choose not to use it. Learn to live with it or continue to be angry and obsessive about it. Your choice.

Guess you haven't heard of Graphene OS, or de-Googled phones? Or Linux?
Where there's a will, there's a way. It may be inconvenient, but I can live with that.

You do you then. Good luck. Let us know how that works out.
