Should I use Microsoft Copilot? (lemmus.org)

I have been using Micorsoft Bing for a few weeks and using the Rewards program and I'm still debating on whether or not I should be using their new digital assistant Copilot assuming it won't replace everything else.

I am enjoying Microsoft products more but wonder about Copilot when I already dabbled with ChatGPT and OpenAI and also reading up on the subject and asking my family whether it will be detrimental or not to me.

I also use Microsoft Windows for the games you can only find on Steam (Injustice, The Sims 3) which is why I chose to use more Microsoft stuff.

What does everyone think?

I treat it like a junior dev, it gets the gist but may make mistakes and I work it into something usable.

I also like it to save keystrokes, like when I'm building an object, it knows the structure of that object, so it ends up being tab/enter/tab/enter/... Same process for creating converters between types.

I don't expect much from it, but it does save time and keystrokes
