Here’s how I finally got Google’s uninvited 4GB AI model off my Mac

# Google's Chrome Secretly Downloaded 4GB of AI Software to Your Computer—Here's Why That's a Problem Google automatically installed a 4GB artificial intelligence model called Gemini Nano on millions of computers through its Chrome browser without asking permission or even telling people it was happening.
