AI GeneratedLG smart TV users are surprised by an unremovable Microsoft Copilot app that appeared after a recent webOS update. The app, part of LG's AI TV strategy, cannot be deleted like other streaming apps on the home screen. Users express frustration over the forced addition of Copilot, with no option to remove it, leading to concerns about AI features being imposed without consent. LG's support documentation confirms that certain preinstalled apps cannot be deleted, leaving users with limited options to minimize Copilot's presence on their TVs.
