"Snapchat+ subscribers receive early access to new My AI features, and have the ability to unpin or remove My AI from their Chat feed."

Also worth noting that as a free user I have been able to remove it from the list that is shown on the web version of Snapchat [1], but that change doesn't carry over to the mobile app.

That's a really funny set of features. "Love My AI? Pay us to get more! Hate it? Pay us to get rid of it!"

It implicitly acknowledges that it's a bad feature that people might actually pay to get rid of.

This is so dystopian all around.

Whoops I left off the link to the support article that contains that first quote: https://help.snapchat.com/hc/en-us/articles/13387249333780-H...

Also there's a second support article which also currently contains that same quote but used to read: "Only Snapchat+ subscribers can remove My AI from their Chat feed at this time." [1]
