Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 77266, member: 636"] LG smart TVs started forcing Microsoft Copilot onto users through a webOS update that treats the AI assistant like core system software instead of a regular app you can delete. The software stays embedded even after factory resets, and owners can only hide the icon while the program keeps running in the background. Microsoft and LG have been working together to jam more AI features into televisions for content recommendations and voice commands. People are losing it over the lack of control since the update downloads automatically when TVs connect to the internet, and privacy settings only disable some tracking without actually removing Copilot. The only way to avoid the assistant completely involves keeping the television offline before the firmware installs, which basically turns your smart TV into a dumb one. [/QUOTE]
