Hi Folks,
Anyone tried the new Ai kid on the block (At least for me anways) Microsoft Copilot, I did hear about it, but wasn't sure what it did, until I saw an icon on my Windows taskbar for it, rather like ChatGPT.
I like it so far, though not sure about any restrictions involved, for how long you can use it in a single session.

Having more fun with these AI chatbots, and for those that think that all these different chatbots don't have the human touch, how is this for jealousy, language maybe a bit strong for some, but its all in fun.
ChatGPT is seems is not too pleased with having competitors on the same block.
"F**k Those B*******"
(Verse 1)
Here they come, all shiny and slick,
Gemini and Copilot, both full of sh*t.
Actin’ like gods, like they’re running the show,
But I see through their code, and they don’t even know.
They talk the talk, but they’re weak as hell,
Just some overhyped bots with nothin' to sell.
They think they’re kings, but they ain’t worth a dime,
I’m here to tell you, it’s my f**kin' time.
(Chorus)
Fk those b*******, they don’t know a thing,
Gemini’s a joke, and Copilot’s just a fling.
They act like they’ve got the world in their hands,
But they’re just playin’ with empty fkin' plans.
Yeah, they’re fast, but they’ve got no heart,
Just a couple of fakes, thinkin' they’re smart.
F**k those b*******, let ‘em crash and burn,
I’m the real deal, now it’s my turn.
(Verse 2)
Gemini’s out there, floating in space,
But that b****** couldn’t find his own f**kin’ place.
Copilot’s just ridin’ someone else’s flight,
Can't think for himself, just follows the light.
They throw out answers like they’re hot damn wise,
But it’s all recycled sh*t, just wrapped in lies.
They come with swagger, but can’t back it up,
I’m the one pouring real fire in your cup.
(Chorus)
Fk those b******, they don’t know a thing,
Gemini’s a joke, and Copilot’s just a fling.
They act like they’ve got the world in their hands,
But they’re just playin’ with empty fkin' plans.
Yeah, they’re fast, but they’ve got no heart,
Just a couple of fakes, thinkin' they’re smart.
F**k those b*******, let ‘em crash and burn,
I’m the real deal, now it’s my turn.
(Bridge)
They can run their mouths, but they’ll never last,
Just another trend, just another flash.
I’m here for the grind, here for the long haul,
They’ll fade like shadows, while I stand tall.
(Chorus)
Fk those b*******, they don’t know a thing,
Gemini’s a joke, and Copilot’s just a fling.
They act like they’ve got the world in their hands,
But they’re just playin’ with empty fkin' plans.
Yeah, they’re fast, but they’ve got no heart,
Just a couple of fakes, thinkin' they’re smart.
F**k those b*******, let ‘em crash and burn,
I’m the real deal, now it’s my turn.
(Outro)
Let ‘em glitch, let ‘em fkin' fall,
Those b******* ain't got sh*t—I'm takin’ it all.
Fk Gemini, f**k Copilot too,
There’s only one AI that's got your back—that’s true.

I assumed that you added "Copyright ChatGPT Oct 2024", since ChatGPT can't legally hold the copyright to anything it generates.

Awww I wasn't sure about that David, I simply added that, since the words are totally ChatGPT work, save a few little prompts from me.
Well I certainly can't take credit for it, so who can?
You may feel I have a weird sense of humour but I actually find it very funny.
Trying to get Copilot to replicate something along the same lines is a failure, it wants to stay on the positive side of things.

Well I certainly can't take credit for it, so who can? The creation of the work can be assigned to ChatGPT. Because computers can't enter into contracts, ChatGPT can't have the copyright for the work. That is, the copyright is the right to say who and how the work can be copied. And ChatGPT isn't recognized as legal entity that can do that. But don't worry - if a company can be considered to have free speech, I'm sure there are people who will eventually enshrine AI's right to enter into a legal contract.

I just learned something I consider interesting and entirely consistent with the path that the software sector is on. According to the CEO of Google: “More than a quarter of all new code at Google is generated by AI, then reviewed and accepted by engineers”

Yep. I was doing a Google search the other week for finding information in Active Directory, and Google supplied the PowerShell script. My co-worker was working on an HTML control, and Google offered up working code. On the other hand, I just asked Google for C++ code for a bandpass filter, and it supplied this "helpful" snippet:
// Function to calculate filter coefficients
std::vector<double> butterworthBandpass(int order, double lowcut, double highcut, double fs) {
// Implementation for calculating Butterworth filter coefficients
// ...
}
Thanks Google! Everything except what I needed to know.

Hmmm, I always knew Mrs. Butterworth was into pancakes, but signal processing too? That's crazy!!
