I wonder if this varies by territory. In UK, none of the Gmail accounts I use has received this pollution

The latter sounds safer. The former may add "AI" tomorrow.
I am in the UK. TBC this isn't a gmail.com email address, this is a paid "small business" workspace against a custom domain.
Eventually they backtracked and allowed (I think?) all paid customers to disable gemini, but I had already migrated to Fastmail so :shrug:
