I had a very simple script. All it does is trigger an action on a monthly schedule.

I passed the script to Copilot to review.

It caught some typos. It also said the logic of the script was flawed and it wouldn't work as intended.

I didn't need it to check the logic of the script. I knew the logic was sound because it was a port of a script I was already using. I asked because I was curious about what it would say.

After restating the prompt several times, I was able to get it to confirm that the logic was not flawed, but the process did not inspire any confidence in Copilot's abilities.
