The biggest issue with Copilot might not be the model itself, but the naming strategy. One name is used for several completely different products, and users end up totally confused. You think you're using GitHub Copilot, but it's actually M365 Copilot, and you don't even get to choose the model. Microsoft really needs to make this clearer.

LOL. We're talking about the company that used to slap a non-sensical .NET suffix on everything.

And now it slaps "xbox" on everything.

And they’ve renamed Office pretty much every year so I’m not even sure what it’s called any more, Microsoft Life or something.

It’s so strange that they keep renaming because Office (and office.com) is perfectly usable.
