Never do that. You should always fully own and control your communication and computation devices. It's a matter of privacy.
You can deactivate it though and revoke all data usage.
The "reasoning" which is displayed, such as step-by-step explanations or chain-of-thought responses, is only a simulation of reasoning, generated as text based on patterns. It's in the same form of any text production an LLM is capable of. When an LLM mimics "reasoning," it is generating text that looks like reasoning because it has seen similar patterns in its training data.
LLMs/Chatbots confabulate statistically probable texts, there's no compassion possible.
Don't fall into the AI-marketing trap of "we don't know what's happening in the black box, so we have to assume there's consciousness in there". The systems produce convincing deceptive language, but all signs of intelligence or compassion anyone sees in them is just an anthropomorphic projection.
It was small. We had printed guides for websites!
