Copilot is by far the worst llm type software i have ever used.
Even there big selling feature of being integrated into office apps is a joke.
Claude code does a vastly better job at knowing what a .txt file is, can generate and editing office files from the commandline. Claude put zero effort into making Microsoft software compatible, it just is as a natural consequence of being less incompetent.
I got a new job and they gave me an outlook account. I asked copilot to look at an email and add the event details to my calendar. It couldn't do it. 5 or 6 times I asked and it was unable. It wanted to create an ICS for me to download and import. Fuckin useless. Turned it off.
I turned off copilot in the outlook settings and the UI refuses to remove the icon. The icon flashes in full color, next to other things I use, before then going grey/disabled, but its impossible to remove it. So it shoves it in your face every day even after you already learned how much it sucks. Fucking worthless software and UI design going on at Microsoft.
