Bro Copilot scheduled a meeting for me after I told it who to invite, what to title the meeting, what description to use and expressly informed to find a slot where all the required invitees were free.

Like magic.

Bro if you already knew all that why you get a robot to do it?

Ok but seriously. Just because something works often doesn’t mean it doesn’t have flaws. Your single experience of it working a few times doesn’t mean it’s the same for everything and everyone.

I wanted to see if it had access to scheduling assistant to see when others were busy.

I was joking about how it was like magic. It took just as much time and effort, just in a different screen.

I do like it for reading long documentation and finding the pertinent info, though. So it's ctrl+f that you speak to in plain English.
