Many persistent errors in Event Viewer after Windows 11 build 22598.ni_release.220408-1503: "Autopilot.dll wil error was reported"

I used to be part of the the Windows 11 Insider Beta channel. After updating to build 22598.ni_release.220408-1503 I began to see the same error in Event Viewer extremely frequently:

The errors are all the same and read as follows:

Autopilot.dll WIL error was reported.

HRESULT: 0x80070491

File: onecoreuap\admin\moderndeployment\autopilot\dll\dllmain.cpp, line 128

Message: NULL

I have never used any program called Autopilot or Modern Deployment. After seeing this problem I immediately left the insider program and am now queued for enrollment. However no new Windows update has happened and these errors persist. How do I prevent these errors?

    Looks like it's a MS Edge bug. If you start MS Edge, new errors will immediately appear in the log. While MS Edge is running, the number of errors increases. I have so. If I run Google Chrome, then no errors appear.

    It does not help to make comments reporting the error on an individual PC. To repeat: it is apparently a programming error/failure, which puts it into MS's shop to fix! And that must happen fast. I have almost 1000 errors in my Event Viewer. So, MS please, please fix it fast. Do not wait or try to sit it out.
