The latest Microsoft 365 Update has added a Copilot function to Word. Now every time I create a new paragraph, a little copilot symbol appears in the left-hand margin prompting me to use copilot. It is extremely annoying and distracting. How do I stop this symbol appearing, or better, remove copilot from Word?
Processes in Microsoft 365 for setting up Office apps, redeeming product keys, and activating licenses.

Didn’t work for me. The dreaded, unwanted co pilot is still there at the top of a new document.
Didn't work for me either, even rebooted the laptop! Come on, Microsoft, admit you made a mistake and make Copilot an option instead of imposing it on people who don't need or want it!

I want this nuisance removed completely from Word- don't want this extremely useless Copilot. Never asked for it and definitely don't want it. I uninstalled it but it still won't go. It is internet abuse!!!
Because I am on an iMac I cannot follow these directions :( Mac directions?
Just don't have time to waste on your internet abuse with Copilot. You put it on my Word. You remove it. Just had enough. You invaded my privacy by putting this garbage on my Word program - you remove it. I've wasted enough of my time on your useless and Copilot. You never had my permission to put this **** on my computer in the first place. I'll report you to the ACCC in Australia our consumer watchdog.
