      There are a few different Copilots which are all called Copilot. You speak of the windows Copilot which is different to the Office365 Copilot. Then there is the other Copilot that hangs out with Bing.

      Only people who are serve no useful purpose in their organisation.

      There used to be an insult for these people “shut up or I will replace you with a very small shell Script”.

      I only know one person who put LLM to use. He used to write copy for advertising agency’s who wouldn’t actually read the copy before it was published. Once he even sent Lorem Ipsum text and it was published. No one noticed. He eventually outsourced to India so he didn’t have to spend time writing something that no one would ever read. Eventually he used ChatGPT made some scripts to automate the whole process.

    I have a trial Co-Pilot license because they thought the IT guy would be a good test case. I have no use for it and it mostly sits there idle. Sometimes a co-worker will get me to run one of their documents through it for insights.
    It is next to useless for Excel as it simply creates Pivot tables that I can make myself just as fast.

      Worthless to me, also. I’ve used it a couple of times and it provided incorrect information. Once was simply out of date the other was so bad that I’d have caused an outage if I’d done what the thing suggested.

      If I can’t trust it with basic stuff, I’m sure not going to trust it with stuff when I’m stumped and need help.
