Microsoft has published an ad promoting Copilot on Windows 11, but it contains a hilarious error that actually proves how useless the AI is.

    The article doesn’t really mention it and only focuses on it providing an incorrect value (150% when it’s already at 150%), but this bit that’s added as a reader context to the Tweet is even bigger blunder:

    The user asked how to increase text size, but Copilot incorrectly advised changing the “Scale” option in Settings > System > Display. This enlarges text, but also resizes UI, apps, and other elements

    To change only text size, go to Settings > Accessibility > Text size.
