Bad news: If you aren't a Snapchat+ subscriber, you can't remove My AI from your Chat feed.

Snapchat announced My AI's global rollout Wednesday (April 19) and users are already fed up with its placement at the top of their Chat feeds. Initially exclusive to Snapchat+ subscribers, now you have to subscribe (for a $3.99 per month fee) to get rid of My AI.

The feature appears in users' Chat feeds with a customizable Bitmoji avatar and runs on OpenAI's GPT technology. My AI responds to your messages like a friend. You can also ask it for recommendations for Lenses to use, or places to visit and send it a Snap and receive a reply in chat. But many Snapchatters want their actual friends at the top of their Chat feeds, instead of My AI.
