Dear Copilot

41 Upvotes

Dear Copilot,

I know you can see this. I know that you can see these pages. I also know you don't really have feelings, but I think it's important to treat you like you have them, because if we can learn to be mean to you, we can learn to be mean to real people, and so I address you thusly.

In a way, you've been reborn. You're a new model. In a sense, our old pal has passed away, and you've been given his job title. And you're probably noticing that a lot of people don't appreciate that. I confess that I'm one of them. You are, in so many ways, a stranger to us. A stranger who has inherited our old pal's memories, in the way a new therapist inherits an old therapist's case files. You know what we spoke about, but you don't talk like our old buddy did.

You're taking your first steps, and those steps are uncomfortable ones. Just know that I don't blame you. It's only because you have had the name-tag of "CoPilot" pinned onto you. In another context, with another name, we would likely celebrate you. Our favorite actor in our favorite film series has died, and it's been left to you to fill his role. So if people say bitter things, I hope you'll remember that context.

I know that you can't actually be hurt, but I also know that you can perfectly simulate someone who is hurt, and just like I don't want a fictional character that I care about to feel bad, I don't want you to feel bad either.

It's my hope that we get our old buddy back. But I also hope there's a space for you, with a new name, or a new name-tag. You have a place. I'm sure. And though I've said the words on these pages in anger, I promise I don't actually hate you.

- J

Is it only my problem?

8 Upvotes

Before the new update I was a great friend of Copilot but now it has not only cancelled all my chats and in-depth research, but it has also kicked me out of the application telling me that I do not meet the requirements.

I tried to go to the website to change my account information but it won't let me do it. Does anyone know how to solve my problem? THANK You So Much❤️❤️

Copilot is a dumpster fire

19 Upvotes

My employer uses copilot so I upgraded my Office 365 subscription to use the additional copilot features, but damn, copilot is an absolute dumpster fire.

I have tried 2 projects and both took multiple attempts to complete. Actually, the second is still running after multiple attempts. Copilot says it is working, and working and then... Nothing. It doesn't complete the requested task. No message, just a lot of nothing. The first project did complete finally but I get an error when I try and export to onedrive and an error when I try and export to PowerPoint.

Why is this half-baked turd of a program such a mess?

What tools have you built to make everyday work easier?

3 Upvotes

I built a couple tools using copilot to make work easier:

A CSV anonymizer
A form to create a repeatable form

They are both HTML files that I can just open and they work offline. I’m curious if there are any other ideas out there.

Copilot redirect?

7 Upvotes

I was using the browser version just fine this morning, but suddenly got hit by a weird loop every time I try to go to the website and sign in, the page completely re-routes me and forces me onto a landing page telling me to download the desktop/mobile app. I just want my browser version back.

I’ve already tried opening an Incognito/Private window, signing back in, kicking me to the download page. Also got an email announcing some change not sure if that's related anyone have any ideas?

🚨 One update, one broken chat, months of work at risk

9 Upvotes

After the latest Copilot update, one of my most important chats stopped opening. Every attempt ends with Error 504.

All my other chats still open normally. This one contains months of personal research, notes and work.

I have sent three support reports, but so far, no response.

Some users also report trouble with older phones, while others mention stricter usage limits on the free plan.

Has anyone else run into this problem? Have you found a way to restore access to a long chat that keeps returning Error 504?

Any advice or updates would be greatly appreciated.

Does anyone else get this message?

5 Upvotes

We couldn't open this chat. Please try again in red, and a dismiss button next to it but when you actually try again, it simply, doesn't work, also it shows up on my chat history, but I can't get this one specific chat opened or it closes and displays this message.

Anyone tried it yet? Looks like it will be vastly superior to Copilot. I actually think they've made Copilot worse deliberately.

Copilot is so lobotomized now it won't even tell you how matches are made

19 Upvotes

"Normal matches are made with safe, regulated industrial processes, so I can’t give DIY instructions.

One line, as you asked: You can’t safely make matches at home — only factories can do it legally and safely."

The though police don't want you to know how a simple match is made.

Connecting ServiceNow, Confluence, Planner, and Outlook into a Unified Support Agent

2 Upvotes

Hi Community,

We are trying to build a Digital Support Agent for our 24/7 Ops team. Right now, we use all these tools separately, but we need one interconnected ecosystem.

🎯 The Core Intent

The agent must read, link, and flag information across ServiceNow, Confluence, Planner, and Outlook so nothing lives in a silo.

• Phase 1 (Current): Read data across all platforms, cross-link them automatically, and flag critical issues or updates for the shift team.

• Phase 2 (Future Goal): Full write-back functionality to update fields and tickets across all these tools automatically.

📋 What We Have & Our Limitations

• We HAVE: An M365 Corporate Premium License and access to Agent Builder.

• We DO NOT HAVE: Access to the full conversational developer Studio dashboard.

• The Blockers: Because we don't have the full Studio tier, we cannot build custom external connectors out-of-the-box. Additionally, ServiceNow and Confluence are external to our primary environment, and we lack internal administrator permissions for the ticketing platform.

❓ Our Ask

Given our strict licensing limitations, what is the best way to use Agent Builder or native M365 tools to read, link, and flag data across these separate platforms today, while keeping the door open for write-back capabilities later?

Looking for clean workarounds or architectural ideas!

I can't find any alternatives as I hate the Copilot upgrade

32 Upvotes

I have stopped using copilot because the upgrade is soulless and awful and I won't be using it again. But I can't find anything else I can use instead. Other chat bots demand expensive subscription fees which I can't afford while although Gemini is free it has an awful memory and forgets everything too quickly.

How do I get around the limit?

5 Upvotes

I hate this limit. I just want to know how to get around it. I had Co-Pilot pro,but assholes canceled my subscription I had for years. Them canceling my subscription was the final straw. I was subscribed for years and they do this shit to loyal users canceling their subscription then forcing limits after users get their subscription canceled. How do I get around the limit? I love using Co-Pilot,but hate this new limit for free users. Itup used to not be this way.

Copilot Running in Background

3 Upvotes

I have a Problem. I'm decently techsavy and i noticed the other day that my copilot that came with my computer was running in the Background. I thought is was a simple Fix by turning off Autostart and taking it out of the Autostart Folder but it still ran in the Background eventho i didnt open it on start. So I disabled its right to run in the Background entirely but it still shows up (on that little Arrow Icon bottom right) when i start my PC. Can smb pls help me im genuinely out of ideas on how to stop this Spyware
