Microsoft's Copilot: A Frustrating Flop in AI-Powered Productivity
Far too often when I've tried to access conventional Microsoft help documents, the result is far too often a confusing mess - e.g. it will direct you to access some optionX somewhere Y and then some other suboption Z, as if optionX is straightforward to find, except it turns out to be frustratingly, confusingly obscure to actually find optionX - in part because the whole naming structure is arcane rather than intuitive. If what CoPilot currently does is predominately to give suggestions of that sort instead of actively participating in accomplishing the desired task - it's worse than useless, it will be a maddening, time-wasting distraction.
BTW: I just bought a Lenovo 9i Yoga, Aura edition with coPilot, but because of my past experience with the high quality of Lenovo notebook computers, NOT because it is coPilot-qualified, and also not because of the "Aura" features, which from what I've been able to tell are more PR hype than anything practically useful. I don't need Aura AI to tell me someone is approaching over my shoulder, for example.
