Microsoft to Force Install Copilot on 365 App Users, Whether They Want It or Not, Beginning in October

I've been using copilot on my personal system. It's not bad. Just be careful about putting anything in there you don't want becoming common knowledge.
 
October? It's already installed without my consent. And I'm in the EU. Or did they mean the rollout excludes the EEA because it's already done here?
 
Totally shocked, honestly. I thought it meant the EU privacy laws prevented it but maybe there's some kind of bizarre loophole.
 
I dunno man... I've done some image modification with it... took a picture of a guys truck, added an image of some wheels he was looking at and had it put the wheels on the truck in the image and it did a **** good job.

You can do some effective stuff with it. To call it bing on steroids is short shifting it.
 
Good to know and I really like hearing the positives of what can be done. Gives me a little more hope. :)

It just appeared one day in 365 both offline and online. Recently too, meaning sometime in the past 1-2 weeks. TBH I haven't run it once before uninstalling it. The app version at least, you can't uninstall it from the browser version.

There might be a loophole that allows them to install it for corporate users, since I'm using a company 365 subscription.

I don't need an AI on my computer that may or may not spy on me or use my data for training, when I can easily access a ton of AI tools that are fully offline and run locally.
