Teams: Disable New Feature Popups?

How do I disable ALL popups that announce new features in Teams. You know, the ones with the cheap clipart drawings and redundant announcements. It is infuriating when I am trying to send a message to a colleague and interrupted by a random popup telling me to try a new feature that I'm already aware of and is absolutely useless to me. It hijacks my typing and it's got to go.

    NOBODY CARES ABOUT NEW FEATURES. I'VE BEEN IN SOFTWARE TRAINING FOR 20 YEARS. GET OUT OF MY FACE WITH THESE POP-UPS. NEVER HAS SOMEONE SAID OH THAT'S NEW I THINK I'LL TRY IT. WE ARE WORKING - DON'T BOTHER US PLEASE WAKE UP, FIX THE BUGS AND SHUT OFF NOTIFICATIONS.

    Hello! I'm the new version of Clippy. I don't have a name, but people call me AI, and I'm just as annoying! Here's a pop-up to tell you about new pop-ups and how to disable those pop-ups, but you can't disable this pop-up because my pop-ups are a feature! Yay! Would you like more in app advertising? Here you go! It's free within your paid enterprise application! I'm glad to have interrupted the work you were trying to complete! That's my job! Have a great day! Best Regards from Copilot AI Clippy 365!

    That's just unacceptable. They cover parts of the interface and I don't need or want to be sold garbage...I'm not the IT staff.

    Please make you software usable for real people. Teams feels like only developers looked at the usability. Clunky, inefficient, troublesome.

    I would never invest in this utter trash for my business but some of my clients have poor taste.
