I looked under all of them and can't find anything about "Third-Party AI"
How do I turn this sharing off?
The Third-Party AI features are not available to everyone yet. The features are in alpha and are only available to customers on Dropbox Professional, Essentials, Business, Business Plus, and some customers on Dropbox Standard and Advanced.
If you're on a Basic, Plus or Family account, or you're part of one of the other groups that don't yet have access, the Third-Party AI features won't be available to you.

Thank you. If you are in one of the categories where you don't have access to this setting, is the Third-Party AI sharing set to on or set to off?

Dropbox isn't just randomly sharing people's files with third parties. Your files are only sent to a third-party AI when you use one of the AI powered features. If your account doesn't have access to the features, then your files would never be shared with a third-party.

I see. Okay, thank you for your help.

I can see that I have AI search, because when I (for example) search for 'dog' in my Dropbox mobile app I get photographs of dogs, not just documents with the word dog in the title or body of the document.
but, like others are saying here, I don't have the ability to turn it off in my settings.

Hey everyone!
So, currently, only users eligible and selected to participate in the alpha experience for Dropbox AI for search should have this feature.
These users will see a banner which reads, “Quickly find what you need with Dropbox AI for search” when they click into their search bar.
You can find more info about this here.
