How do I stop Android Studio from setting compileSdkVersion to 33 by default on new project creation

Every time I create a new module, compileSdk is set to 33 by default, in build.gradle (:module). When I try to build that new project, IDE shows an error saying there are libraries I use that require compileSdk to be 34 or higher. That, unfortunately, means that I have to manually set compileSdk to the value of 34 every time I start a new project or module.

I’ve found that that library is:

implementation 'com.google.android.material:material:1.10.0'

Or, another approach that I can take (instead of setting compileSdk to 34 manually every time I create a new module) is downgrading this library’s version from 10 to 9:

implementation 'com.google.android.material:material:1.9.0'

And it’s working as well.

But what is frustrating me is that they’ve decided to set me a higher version of the library by default but they don’t do it with compileSdk. And also none of this would happen 2 days ago (and earlier) when I would create a module (perhaps there has been a silent update). And now I have to change it manually every time.

And I’m wondering why no one is having the same problem I am. I use Linux and I downloaded Android Studio from the Jetbrain’s official site: Android Studio Giraffe | 2022.3.1 Patch 2.
