    I thought CoPilot was just a rebagged ChatGPT anyway?

    It’s a silly experiment anyway, there are very good AI chess grandmasters but they were actually trained to play chess, not predict the next word in a text.

      Hahaha. No. (Though your not Complety wrong)

      Copilot relies on a few different llms and tries to pick the best one for the job cheapest microsoft thinks it can get away with.

      I was given a paid copilot license for work and i used to have chatgpt pro before i moved to claude.

      This “paid enterprise tier” is by far the dummest llm i have ever used. Worse then gpt 3.5

      The research I saw mentioning LLMs as being fairly good at chess had the caveat that they allowed up to 20 attempts to cover for it just making up invalid moves that merely sounded like legit moves.

      but… but… reasoning models! AGI! Singularity! Seriously, what you’re saying is true, but it’s not what OpenAI & Co are trying to peddle, so these experiments are a good way to call them out on their BS.

        To reinforce this, just had a meeting with a software executive who has no coding experience but is nearly certain he’s going to lay off nearly all his employees because the value is all in the requirements he manages and he can feed those to a prompt just as well as any human can.

        He does tutorial fodder introductory applications and assumes all the work is that way. So he is confident that he will save the company a lot of money by laying off these obsolete computer guys and focus on his “irreplaceable” insight. He’s convinced that all the negative feedback is just people trying to protect their jobs or people stubbornly not with new technology.
