The hell. How can they expect people to understand ?
They plan to sell 100 things under the same name and try to sell it as one big AI when it is hundred of différents things unrelated ?
They’ve never been good at naming things, but they now seem to be going out of their way to try to be the worst with the names of their software. For instance, they named the successor to the already generically named “remote desktop protocol” “windows app”.
Copilot? You mean the AI with terms of service that are in bold and explicit: “for entertainment purposes only”?
Which is why its in the title and not the article? EntertainBait?
Just legal stuff. Making a huge deal of it is dumb
I disagree.
Legal stuff would be Use at your own risk, or answers may not be correct.
This is really strong language.
I suppose GitHub Copilot is meant, which is a different thing.
Different how, isn’t github owned by microsoft ?
Different in that it’s not an AI model, it’s just a tool you can use to run AI models like Claude.
see my reply here
There are like 70 copilots
Up to 81 now

This one is funny. Go google windows app commands. They just fucked sysadmins
Most of those are bundled, no one is buying copilot fot OneNote they just get it when the get the rest of that suite.
Ok, so there are 70-81 copilots, github is one of them.
Why is github copilot a different thing in the context of the reply that was being responded to ?
Copilot is the harness, Claude and GPT are the models
Copilot is by far the worst harness of all the major players
Yes, i get that, copilot is like opencode or cursor, though perhaps with less general access to models.

i was asking why github copilot is different in that context.
