Microsoft Copilot and Github Copilot are not the same thing, despite Microsoft owning both. Just a lot of people like the "copilot" image. I assume they'll eventually change one of the them to the similarly positive "Fuckbuddy" because "Crutch" sounds too negative

I bet they regret blowing their load on Cortana already with their useless Windows 10 feature.

Now their actual AI isn't named after the AI from the videogame they specifically used for brand recognition. What a fuck up.

Dude I thought both copilots were the same thing wtf. So is regular copilot just chatgpt or does it also have github data? Do they both have chstgpt and github data?
