AI Autocomplete in VSCode

Is there a universal kill switch somewhere in VSCode to turn this thing off?

I'm worried about academic integrity because no matter what settings I change VSCode keeps defaulting back to just... trying to complete assignments for me.

I've disabled Copilot, uninstalled the codex extension, disabled AI everywhere I can find to disable it, but then I will fire up VSCode, type something like def sum_two_numbers( and it will just.... fill in the function for me.

I'm just deleting it as soon as it happens but this isn't satisfactory because obviously it could give me answers I don't already know, but I just cannot find a way to disable it and stop it coming back and I don't want it doing this as I move through the course.

Web interface is the obvious solution to this but isn't a workable option for me as the time I have to work on CS50 is time I don't have reliable internet access.
