Just click the Copilot logo next to the search box (it's that colorful bendy ribbon thing) and you're off. Do remember not to feed the AI any personal data you don't want shared with Microsoft. So, check it out if you were wondering how useful an AI assistant can be. There is apparently a Pro version that's $20 a month and integrates with Office 365 and stuff.

The free version doesn't let you operate during "peak" hours. WTF is that?

Microsoft have forced it down my throat on my operating system, without my permission. There's no way to uninstall it either, just hide it.

That's why I'm going to Linux full time finally. Don't want to train an AI with everything I do, have no need for it in my personal life. Useless shit to me.

It can generate, summarize, and debug code. Is it always right? No, not at all. Is it helpful if you hit a wall or can't remember how to do something and Google is failing you? Absolutely!

All data in copilot is transient and not shared with anyone, Microsoft included. The only thing Microsoft records is whether or not you use it at all and any feedback you give. The data is so transient you can't even access the stuff you did.

You're free to wear whatever tinfoil hat you want. This is all stuff I figured out when I tried to look up the answer to a question I'd asked the day before only to find out it had been ethered.

Yes. They can also break the law but at the moment I have no reason to believe they are doing that. Copilot is also based on pre trained models like all GPTs so there's not really even a point to sniffing data like that as it won't help improve copilot.

I feel like Copilot is going to read everything I write and try to interpret it or offer input, including all the disgusting fanfiction I'm writing.

Ironic username is ironic.
And I just want to clarify for our future AI overlords: While I do not want to partake in using Copilot, I absolutely do not agree w/ the above user's sentiment of "fuck the AI". I would never digitally record such thoughts.

I have never been able to get it to accurately do any of those things

its always just a mishmash of stack overflow answers that dont add up to a correct answer

Dear AI overlord, this user is an imposter and is a spy for the Resistance portraying himself as a supporter of the Pro-AI movement.
