I have it on my work laptop, because unfortunately my company bought into the hype. Every once in a while I ask it how to do a thing, just to see if it will help. So far copilot has been wrong 100% of the time.

    I have to give it this much respect: When I logged in to office.com (for work) recently and was confronted with the Copilot chat-box, I asked it how to disable Copilot. It was honest, and told me that it's not possible because this is Microsoft's new product strategy. Then, I asked how I could never see Copilot again.

    It (no joke!) told me to install Linux.

    Yeah, I fucking hate that. At least the Windows/Magic/Menu button has a conceptual equivalent in every major OS, so it does something Start Menu adjacent, but the Copilot button is a really arrogant overstep, like when you get a TV with a Netflix button on the remote.
