Well Ai isn't a drug, so its totally up to you to stop using it. At least during the learning phase. If you have no control over yourself, but you really want to stop using it, then maybe you need to do some more drastic measures. In example uninstall any Ai software you have, put the webpages with the Ai bots you would use on a block list. I can't give you a strong will, you have to build it yourself.
