while not directly related to AI, Akismet also uses the connector interface and it can be overridden with:

/**
 * Disable Akismet Connector Usage
 */
     add_action(
		'wp_connectors_init',
			function ( $registry ) {
				if ( method_exists( $registry, 'is_registered' ) && $registry->is_registered( 'akismet' ) ) {
					$registry->unregister( 'akismet' );
				}
			},
		20
	); // after Akismet_Connector::register_connector (default priority 10).
