## Description

This plugin is for WordPress users who want a clutter-free interface, without AI
buttons and options taking up space.

The point is not to discourage the use of AI in general. In fact, AI was used in
research and development, and creation of assets for this plugin. However, theme
and plugin developers are injecting buttons and links into core interfaces of the
WordPress admin area, the Gutenburg editor, and even their own workflows.

### Details

AI options are hidden anywhere in the WordPress admin area including the dashboard,
admin toolbar, sidebar, and any other workflow that exists in the admin area.

Hide AI does not concern itself with plugins that are specifically and exclusively
about AI, but rather with ones that are layering AI on top of their core service.

### How to use

Simply install and activate the plugin. That’s it! There are no settings or options.
The plugin takes action only in the admin area, and will automatically hide content
from known sources.

### Plugins and Themes

The plugin hides AI options generated by the following:

 * All in One SEO
 * Elementor
 * Otter Blocks
 * PostX
 * Rank Math SEO
 * SeedProd
 * Spectra
 * WPCode
 * Yoast

If you use a plugin or theme that is adding AI buttons to the interface, please 
submit a [Support request](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/hide-ai/) to have
it included in a later version:

Andrew Hoyer gets it. If there’s a problem, create a solution. AI being “all the
rage” has made the WordPress UI ugly, confusing, and generally a bad experience.
But you don’t have to sit in silence. Your clients don’t have to be confused by 
shiny new buttons. You won’t have to worry about people breaking their sites by 
trying to help with AI. Andrew fixed the problem. Hide the AI buttons. Thank you.

As an agency that provides website care/maintenance, the struggle is real when it
comes to AI features from third parties cluttering WordPress, and this plugin offers
the option to hide them globally with ease. Install. Activate. Done! Check out Hide
AI if you are facing similar challenges with AI features on WordPress sites under
your management. This plugin has truly solved a long-standing problem for us, and
I hope it helps others as well.
