How do I turn off Airpod notifications on MacOS Big Sur? As of Big Sur, everytime I open or unlock my Mac or walk over to it from being somewher else I get this notification

I don't need it, dismissing it is a distraction and waiting for it to disappear is an obstruction to getting work done.
How and turn it off so I never get notifications about my Airpods?
Go to System Preferences → Bluetooth and for your AirPods choose Options and set ‘Connect to This Mac’ to ‘When Last Connected to This Mac’.
