Description

Currently, there are two "Generate with AI" options added into the Image block when using Jetpack:

![Image](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/d10b80f9-9d61-4cdb-8dac-ca7313ceb865)
![Image](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/2ad8ee29-d3e5-4ccc-bd42-a9b8dd6f7ec4)

Similar to https://github.com/Automattic/jetpack/issues/39933, this adds a bit of clutter to the experience as is. Curious what design thinks or why it's best to have this option twice! As is, I'd be keen to see it only in the dropdown when selecting an image as that ensures consistency across interacting with images, including setting a featured image or using a tiled gallery.

Research direction

Start by locating the Jetpack integration for the Image block and the two "Generate with AI" entry points shown in the screenshots. Compare the dropdown, featured-image, and tiled-gallery image flows, and review issue 39933 for related context. Done means the option appears only once, in the agreed location, without changing the other image interactions.
