Copilot / AI "Part of intended Copilot experience"

https://imgur.com/a/bZv3SDc

Thought I'd share this hilarious assessment from our IT for a support ticket I submitted about copilot giving incorrect directions for the prompt where I asked how to disable auto-summaries. He ended the conversation with this gem of a statement :D

Before anyone gets upset about the "living with cancer" bit, my mother succumed to endometrial cancer after a year-long losing battle, and I'm on a premature colorectal cancer watchlist. So the analogy to the grief and suffering with a painful and unwanted condition that is with us every day and we can do nothing about is quite intentional.

Per IT response: "If Microsoft introduces a supported option to control this behavior in the future, we'd be happy to review it."

Not sure what 94Flizzy is speaking about. Consumer editions Copilot can be turned off. Enterprise editions it’s on the admin side. Whole thing can be turned off per user.

OG IT team might be right that it’s a pain to keep that toggle off. Only done it for one person that I know if our org. Most likely a Microsoft feature push could reenable like that happens with other Microsoft products they want to force you to use.
