Forget code. This is not the Github Copilot, aka. ol' completion model powered autocomplete. I'm talking about Windows Copilot, i.e. something more like Bing Chat, except it's fully, deeply integrated with the OS. See the demo video. It's not meant for techies like us to ask it to write PS scripts for us. It's for any user to be able to ask "how the fsck can i make the text smaller?", or "where the fsck did my document go?", or "what the fsck am I even looking at?", and the Copilot is supposed to tweak relevant system settings for you, find and arrange windows, summarize or edit documents you have opened - and suggest what software you could use or install (this is where monetization will enter the picture) to do the thing you asked it how to do. (Also, I found GPT-3.5 helpful with PowerShell; didn't have a reason to try out GPT-4 on PS yet). |

That was my issue. I don't know whether ChatGPT was giving me instructions for the wrong version of Windows or just hallucinating solutions, but things as simple as "Can I write a script that, when run by a shortcut, toggles the desktop screen resolution between 3840x2160 and 1920x1080" and the output doesn't work. Then you tell it it doesn't work and it does it entirely differently, and that doesn't work either. If ChatGPT has no idea whether what it says works, will Windows Copilot? I have my doubts.
