Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Microsoft Edge\Startup, home page and new tab page User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Microsoft Edge\Startup, home page and new tab page Description
By default, the Microsoft Edge new tab page includes three Bing Chat entry points: one inside the search box, one in the Bing autosuggest dropdown when users select or begin typing in the box, and one as a suggested prompt below the box. If you enable or don't configure this policy, these Bing Chat entry points continue to appear on the new tab page. If you disable this policy, all Bing Chat entry points are removed from the new tab page.

BETAConfigure the state, scope and options, then generate .reg, PowerShell, Intune and SCCM outputs — or add the setting to a multi-setting collection.
These exports write the registry — this is not a managed GPO. ⓘ
Applying both scopes creates an ambiguous configuration (computer takes precedence over user). Only do this intentionally.
