I use bing copilot constantly at work. Anytime I need to search for anything I use it.
Saves so much time and gives way more tailored answers than reading blogs/docs.
I can get up and running in a new framework or language instantly now.
It’s also good at finding stuff in less popular languages. For instance searching for vb6 stuff (I know, it sucks haha) almost always gets you VB.net solutions. But bing AI is spot on with it.
It’s totally changed how I work. I can go on a project in a language / framework I’ve never used and be productive within the hour.
I suppose there’s positive, then there’s “totally changed how I work”. It’s a big call. Maybe a real-world example would make it sound more believable: “before ChatGPT, I would have to sift through stacks of outdated VB6 documentation on $task. This took up most of the day. Yesterday I used a LLM to get a basic implementation of $task then I tidied it up and installed it within an hour.”
The thing is it’s true. Before the internet grew and search engines got big you had a massive manual on your desk for whatever you were using. At my first job I had a yearly budget for buying technical books. That or you’d install a massive help library like MSDN.
Imo this is as big a change as moving from those to blogs and online docs.

This reads like a poor attempt a guerrilla marketing.
So does everything that’s positive about a product.

That sounds way more like an ad to me hehe
