Ublock > Pick Element > Click that > Create.

I get that it shouldn't be there but imo GitHub has made a lot more annoying changes to their UI than this piece of text

you don't need ublock to remove it, just hover over it and press a cross button. it permanently dismisses ALL copilot ads.

yes, permanently. I hit that little x a year ago and haven't seen this little ad thing ever since

It's only permanent until they decide that it isn't.
