Hate to admit but Win11 is growing on me, Copilot in particular. In conventional searches the closest hits are often outdated, while more current hits are less relevant. For example, I might get a hit that compares the two stock funds I'm looking for, but it's too old to rely on. Copilot can research the two investments separately and put together an imperfect but moderately useful comparison. I like that it footnotes and links its sources and saves a list of recent chats.
It definitely still needs some work though- I asked it the probability of a suited holdem hand making a flush by the river. It understood the question perfectly and started analyzing correctly, then got lost at the end and produced the ridiculous answer of 80%. It makes me wonder as we start to rely on AI whether we'll have any way of knowing if we're getting reliable answers. Or if it even understood the question the way we intended...
