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

    I’m not sure about that, I think what you’re saying is technically right but when I hear someone say they want the text to be bigger on the computer they typically do want to scale everything up but lack the vocabulary to say that. It’s impossible to know which they actually want without more context, but going for scaling isn’t unreasonable.

      Youre not the first comment that mentions this, and technically it’s right. But the fundamental problem for me is that the AI had a well defined problem - it had one correct answer. Increase text size. It failed, and chose a solution to a problem that 'people who usualy have it, want this solution".

      It was just mediocre solution, that works for median of people.

      It didn’t matter that you specified concrete problem you have - I want larger text. It just averaged it.

      Thats the problem with AI. If you want mediocre solution to a very common problem, it works.

      But thats the only way it works.
