There are several sources covering the same report with differing slants - I’d say this is one of the more negative pieces.

    I have a trial Co-Pilot license because they thought the IT guy would be a good test case. I have no use for it and it mostly sits there idle. Sometimes a co-worker will get me to run one of their documents through it for insights.
    It is next to useless for Excel as it simply creates Pivot tables that I can make myself just as fast.

      Worthless to me, also. I’ve used it a couple of times and it provided incorrect information. Once was simply out of date the other was so bad that I’d have caused an outage if I’d done what the thing suggested.

      If I can’t trust it with basic stuff, I’m sure not going to trust it with stuff when I’m stumped and need help.
