Option: AI suggestions only pull from pre-existing tags

In the promo for the new AI feature, I was sold on an AI categorization system that distanced itself from market competitors because it only learns from tags you personally establish, not random guesses from the machine. Unfortunately, what I got was an algorithm that offers up a lot of random guesses. Most of the suggestions are pretty good, but I was sold on the initial premise. I'd rather define my own tag hierarchy for maximum relevancy and less clutter. Sometimes my own tags don't even show up before the suggested ones. It would be nice to turn AI suggestions on or off.

The older version of the AI suggestions sounds more like what you're looking for. You can toggle all AI suggestions on/off in the settings, but that also turns it off for folders and existing tags. Folder suggestions are so important when you have a complex hierarchy! If I turned them off, Raindrop wouldn't have any purpose for me.
It would be great if you could turn off specific tags or rate the suggestions so it can learn not to keep suggesting similar ones. Being able to manually teach it things would be even better. It's frustrating to work with an AI that "learns" from you but never tells you what it's learning.
Until the accuracy improves, ML becomes more transparent, or I find something that works better for me, I've largely given up on tags. I try to save things to the right folders, maybe add some tags from the top of the list, and hope I can search for what I need later. Unfortunately, the full text search has never worked well for me (not fuzzy enough).
