I'll start on a slight tangent, but it may well be the solution to your problem.

Earlier this month I received a price increase email from Microsoft for Office 365 - to the tune of a 46% increase.

Not too keen on this I went to their website to check to see if there was a cheaper plan, and it turns out there is. You can "downgrade" to a Copilot-free version of Office 365, and this also does away with that absurd 46% increase.

So you get to remove Copilot -and- dodge another year of price increases.

Mini edit: Microsoft have started rolling out a "Turn off Copilot" options in the settings, I have it now in Word, but not in Powerpoint or Excel.
