Did you try asking copilot tips on how to use it properly? Edit* this was a joke. Ai is garbageware that nobody wants, just like ads and capitalism for capital sake. Now untwist your panties.

Yes, I did. Everything I tried on copilot wanted me to upload corporate data to the cloud. (Yeah, NO). It told me it could help with my email…if I uploaded them individually. (Still bad practices here and breaking corp policy).

I expect LLMs should be really good pattern driven activity, but I’ve yet to figure out how to make this useful.

I tried to use a local LLM to summarize outline and discuss my *.md notes for annual review. It sucked at it if it didn’t completely crash the model. It couldn’t even provide a unique list of all tags in the files. (It took me about 30min manually). I thought that it would be good at that. I would have been better off spending to learn find | grep commands or spent time learning python.

I’m still searching, but maybe one day I’ll figure out a use for these.

We use it during down time for amusement to see how badly it can do things. Actually we did, it's gotten a bit boring as it's not even good at doing bad. It just sucks. Carrying on the MS tradition.
