In my outlook app on iPhone as well as in de desktop version of Outlook there is a pop-up of Copilot 'summary' on EVERY email I open.
It's annoying the **** out of me and I want to get rid of this ai-function that I never asked for.
I have Microsoft 365 family.
In settings on the app as well as desktop version there is nothing to be found to remove this.
Where do I get rid of this **** function?

    Copilot must be made a choise.

    The other day I wrote two emails (not in English, but in my native language which I think I master quite well), and I was interrupted by copilot both times, telling me that copilot could write these emails better than me. I really hate this. I am 70 years old, I have my style in my private emails and do not want to be replaced by a machine.

    Also, does this mean that all our mails are being copied?

    For the Outlook Windows App, I found how to disable this huge privacy violation by going to:

    • Settings -> General -> Privacy and data
    • Click "Privacy Settings" button
    • Disable "Connected Experiences - Experiences that analyze your content"

    I agree with everyone's frustrations.

    Junk AI forced on you.

    If this is what AI is going to do, what a waste of time.

    I have to believe that Microsoft will add the ability to turn this off.

    In Outlook go to Settings; General; Privacy & Data. Turn OFF "Experiences that analyze your content"

    I am on the family plan. I am the only one of the 4 of us that has the Copilot issue (for now). I don't want to change my plan for fear of disrupting the other 3. I was able to get rid of Copilot on Word, that was easy. It's just Outlook that seems impossible. And if I can get rid of it in Word, etc....why is it so hard to do it in Outlook? I'm so sick of AI being forced on us.

    This whole silly serendipitous process to turn off copilot is sooo Elite Business Marketing School dystopian. They treat their customers like rats in a maze. Thanks tor your input..
