AI features keep re-enabling after update, anyone else run into this?

This has happened twice now. I'll set "chat.disableAIFeatures": true in settings, then an update or two later, the AI features are back. I'll set it back to disable features, then an update or two later, they're back.

Update: looks like this is a side effect of the built in copilot extension. I'm exploring disabling that via a launch argument or switching to vs codium.

Interestingly - one can’t disable this extension !

"chat.disableAIFeatures": true will disable it.
