My work procured me a copilot license and it really is disappointing. It’s wrong or overly vague most of the time, and just generally doesn’t answer questions in a useful way. Copilot in the IDE is marginally more useful but it rarely gives you an efficient answer and obviously it’s never anything novel, it’s just copy and pasting from stackoverflow answers (or questions even.)
I had low expectations for AI, and it is even less useful than I expected.

I miss functioning web searches.
AI is filled with as much, if not more, SEO designed slop as web searches do now but it is presented as if the user clicked “I feel lucky”.
