Blocking Copilot + AI feed bloat on Github?

cross-posted from: https://programming.dev/post/23000833

I've absolutely grown to hate everything AI/LLM related.

It's sole marginal benefit is to senior devs,with generating some boiler plate code,which you usually still need to adjust.

For the rest it's been a waste of:

Time during development, with wrong answers.
Time during reviews, with garbage generated PRs from junior devs.
Energy, contributing to global warming.

But lately M$ has been intrusively shoving Copilot down our throats on Github, which I'm quite unhappy with.

So if any of you have some uBlock Origin filters,or any other ideas on how I can block this Copilot slop out,please do enlighten me!

Edit: Did some searching of my own.

Go to: https://github.com/settings/copilotBlock + disable everything you can under there.

Then go to uBlock Origin => Open the Dashboard => My Filters => Add:

It's not perfect, but at least it's a start of getting rid of the unwanted content.
