Google Chrome got some new AI features this year. You can see the annoying blue button in Elements and Network DevTools tabs.
To get rid of it, you need to apply a certain Chrome system policies:

* macOS: Run $ defaults write com.google.Chrome DevToolsGenAiSettings -integer 2

* Linux: Create policies.json in /etc/opt/chrome/policies/recommended and add {"DevToolsGenAiSettings": 2}

* Windows: In regedit.exe, navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Google\Chrome. Set the key DevToolsGenAiSettings to dword:00000002

Then in Chrome go to chrome://policy to verify DevToolsGenAiSettings has a Policy Value of 2.

Might require restart, but it didn't on Linux, took effect instantly (in newly opened DevTools).

🔥 This summer, Telegram users will gain access to the best AI technology on the market. Elon Musk and I have agreed to a 1-year partnership to bring xAI’s chatbot Grok to our billion+ users and integrate it across all Telegram apps 🤝

💪 This also strengthens Telegram’s financial position: we will receive $300M in cash and equity from xAI, plus 50% of the revenue from xAI subscriptions sold via Telegram 💰

Telegram + Grok = ❤️📈🏆
