I'd comply and remove that info from the signature. I'd just start every email with:
Hello,
Thanks for reading my email. In case we're not already familiar, my pronouns are he/him and I'm affiliated with...
Hello,
Thanks for reading my email. As a large language model….
Haha
I think I would go with something like this:
Probably in extra-large bold text.
nah just remove all pronouns
Smith,

Just replace the pronouns.
"Hi. Steve was wondering if Steve could go ahead and start Steve's next project since Steve's current project is now in review? Steve would be working with Kevin on Steve's next project and Steve knows that Kevin is wrapping up Kevin's project this week so Steve and Kevin could start next week"
Doesn't that sound so much more professional? 🙄
Perfectly readable, I'd bet there are some languages where "I'm" is implied
Not perfectly readable because you can't tell who they're referring to. Someone mentioned something in class, that's all we know.
I don't know any were the "I'm" is implied, but the "I" is, for example Spanish, because the verb has that info. For example, the present form of "to eat", "comer" I/yo *como You(singular)/tú *comes he/she/they(singular)él/ella/Ud. *come we/nosotros *comemos you(plural) vosotros *coméis they(plural) ellos/ellas/Uds. *comen
As with the verb alone you know the subject, you can safely ignore it and say, for instance "como" (eat) and have the same meaning as "yo como" (I eat).
Like English.
This is the way.
I love this. It screams "Why use lot word when few word do trick."
Yeah no pronouns in emails ever again. That's way more fun lol
