Turning Off the AI Features in WordPress 7.0

WordPress 7.0 shipped this month, with a focus on adding AI features into the core of the platform.

If you don’t want these features, here are some ways to turn them off:

Method 1: wp-config constant

You can add the WP_AI_SUPPORT constant to your wp-config.php file:

define( 'WP_AI_SUPPORT', false );

This is the most secure option.

Method 2: Using a plugin

Install and activate the Turn Off AI Features plugin.

This is the easiest option.

Method 3: Use the wp_supports_ai filter

This is the developer’s option. You can problematically determine whether or not to enable the features that are in core.

add_filter(
        'wp_supports_ai',
        static function ( $supported ) {
                return false;
        },
        1000
);
