"I’m also tired of the endless claims that the tools are completely useless."

Who claimed that here?

I read a claim that Copilot is dumber than claude and ChatGPT and I tend to confirm this.

"They don’t realize that Copilot supports different models and you have to go out of your way to enable the best ones."

So possible that none of us who thinks that, went out of our way to find outy when there were working alternatives, but it would be still on Microsoft making it hard to make good use of their tool.

Yeah I'm not sure why they'd think my point was that LLMs are useless. Clearly I'm integrating them into my work, I just think Copilot is the dumbest. It's given me the most nonsensical answers like the example I provided, and it's the one I use the least. Which is even crazier when you consider we're on a paid version of Copilot and I just use free ChatGPT and Claude.
Your entire comment sure read a lot like you were calling the tools useless. You even used the worst possible prompt to make your point. That’s likely why people are reacting badly.
I said the Copilot is the worst competitor in the space.

Where did I say anything in general about LLMs being useless?
