    Why do you like it? Serious question, of all the jobs I’ve worked at that push Copilot - it is easily the worst AI out there. Just absolute garbage results.

      I like it because I can take mandatory company meeting standards and blend them with relatable topics that I’d like to discuss into an easy to read format for a meeting.

      It’s nice to be able to take someone’s very shitty block style email and turn it into bullet point style information to save myself time and a headache instead of spending 5 minutes trying to decipher their mashed together hieroglyphics.

      During a fancy higher level tour/meeting, it’s nice to combine all the notes/takeaways and put them into a proper format.

      So I guess I like it because of super fast formatting abilities.

          I was under the impression that most Ai is dogshit at coding. This coming from someone who is not in that field.

            I wouldn’t say it is perfect by any means, and definitely not as amazing as the industry would lead you to believe.

            But with the right planning and context feeding, it is definitely a useful tool. While it has saved me tons of time, I continue to push the narrative that it sucks to management though.

            I recently finished a planning session for a project totaling some 40 or so overall tickets of work to be delivered in January 2026. It took about 2 days of careful context structuring and specific planning, but the result is that about 85% of that work is already done by the end of the 3rd day. Now I just plan to slow roll reviewing, tweaking, and testing.

      Love how your toxicity seeps through when asking your disingenuous question.

      Why do you like this? It’s absolute garbage.

      Imagine being so sheerly egocentric that you not only start by insulting what someone else likes, then demand they justify their like of it…

      Egomaniacal, even. Are you a sociopath?

        Yet your reply was several orders of magnitude more toxic than theirs…

        Are you a sociopath?

          So? You just agreed their reply was toxic too. That makes me correct in my assessment. The way I said it does not matter at all if my content is correct.

          Fuck off.

            You call a stranger a sociopath based on a couple of words and then proceeded to display a distinct lack of empathy, disregard for social norms, and manipulative behaviour by suggesting that you being “correct” entitles you to be absurdly rude to others.

            I think you should mull over your own words a little:

            Egomaniacle, even. Are you a sociopath?

              “lack of empathy” is rich coming from a guy defending an asshole. You’re displaying a distinct lack of intelligence by saying you were manipulated by words on a screen on top of that.

              I think you should do what I said and fuck off.

                Dude, the guy said something outputs garbage to someone that isn’t you, and asked why someone liked something because of that. You jumped through mental hoops to justify calling people names and swearing.

                Did you make wisdom your dump stat or something? 🤣

                  Funny how you’re now backtracking your own stance from earlier that their reply was toxic, because suddenly it doesn’t fit the narrative you’re trying to spin.

                  You’re a cretin.

                    My stance has never changed. They were toxic and so were you, kinda worse to be honest. You deeply judged a stranger by a couple of sentences, making all kinds of accusations about their character.

                    Presented with your own words, you began cussing.

                    Playing Smartypants isn’t a good defence for being rude and judgemental to strangers. Be better.
