Copilot (Microsoft) or ChatGPT (OpenAI)? Which do you like more, and why?

@jao_japitana let me know if you like it.

@slimmy82 Will certainly do. Trying it out today :-)

@slimmy82 Not sure about it, I believe it depends on the use case. In my experience, it's ok if I write the code and ask it to find mistakes or possible blindspots in my logic, but writing the logic itself often requires not only knowledge of the task at hand, but also on the surrounding business model. Not sure we will see a proper copilot any time soon.

@misterocean I see what you mean. I’m not a coder so don’t really know. I know HTML basics lol. Definitely hard to code if you don’t know the logic like you said and what you’re fully trying to accomplish

@misterocean that’s fair. Maybe in the next big update there will be improvements.

@reconcatlord I was referring to Microsoft copilot. Never heard of Claude. Will look it up. Thanks for suggestion Nick

@slimmy82 I have to try it out, I was hoping it would be good for using Microsoft Office/365 products. And yes, Claude is made by Anthropic, and I find it to be awesome, It has some great capabilities. 200k token limit, which is really high. Give it a try

@sarvpriy_arya Yes I found it to be really good at analyzing complex texts and problems and giving very eloquent simple explanations of them.

@reconcatlord Cloude is really good when it comes to writing a blog or a tweet

@m_anees what do you like most about it?

@m_anees best for what? Coding or blog writing?

@slimmy82 ChatGPT is paid but copilot is free

@sarvpriy_arya both

@rick_fan interesting, my girlfriend said she was impressed with responses from copilot also

@rick_fan what practical applications

@rulik_tech are you using it for coding?

@sarvpriy_arya Yes, I use it for quickly prototyping small functions. It turns out to be faster than reading documentation. It's less accurate, sure, but much quicker. Sometimes, it also suggests ideas that I hadn't thought about. Another use case for me is passing very long and complex PyTorch errors to it. It then describes the error and suggests how to fix it. There's about an 80% chance it will produce a functional solution.

@rulik_tech that’s fair! If it works for you, then Amazing!

@istiakahmad will be interesting to see how far they take it. Also excited for integration with Mac version of excel

@slimmy82 it will surely come anyway i think 😅😅

@antichingun let’s see what happens in the upcoming months!

@thtslunar really? Have never heard of it

@andrew_noah me too. But was just intrigued with copilot so tested it. Will be interesting what happens in time

@andrew_noah same here

@mahajan I need to test copilot more to be honest. The responses I got where pretty good actually. I need to ask them both the same prompt and see which gives better answers

@mahajan is it paid?

@sarvpriy_arya I think it is free

@slimmy82 I see. Do let us know your experience when you do that!

@jessica_herman2 I definitely got some good responses from copilot. I’m going to use same prompts and see what happens

@flora_diep yeah for now me too, need to still test them with the same prompt

@iqra_naseem have you tested copilot?

@innersynergyx I’m sure they will but it’s going to be an exciting year!

@harperfords I don’t code, so for me it’s basic prompts. Mainly content.
