1 replyI love AI, I spend hours and hours inside Claude Code every day, I find the technology positively sci-fi and a huge step change. And even then, I don't want no fucking Copilot in my taskbar.

Yet another thing to have to disable... I've been closing/dismissing/disabling CoPilot for Office apps for a while now... I really don't want it.

Clippy is back. Today it helpfully autocompleted my variables causing errors in my code. It also annoyingly autoformats coworkers code as they save, making code reviews take 50% longer. Thank you MS for wasting my time that I would have rather spent with my family.
