How do I TURN OFF the "Summary by Copilot banner that appears on every single email I receive in outlook?
I may, maybe once a year when tagged into a super long email thread try to get a summary... but 99.99% of the time I will never want to use this, as such the banner is annoying and consumes lots of valuable space where I could render my email.
How can I turn this off? or hide it by default?

No way ... They need to read your mail. On online version of outlook is not possible to turn of .

You completely miss the point that it was Google doing it first and Microsoft only following Google.

Very frustrated that I can't remove the summary by copilot option. This may be my incentive to go to gmail.
yes, that co-pilot summary banner is now appearing in every email I open. Like the many other complainants all I want is to be able as a user to manage my own use of this function and close off the banners.
And furthermore, the once or twice I have tried co-pilot in other areas (trying to find things out) I have been given incorrect, misleading and downright false information. So I would like to say with everyone else, let us get rid of co-pilot!!!
They don't care that you lost three hours. It's a cleverly disguised way for people not to realize that Microsoft analyzes and reads their emails.
