Worth quoting
“Copilot can sound absolutely certain and be completely wrong at the same time. And because it sounds so confident, you might not think to double check it.” – Mirko Peters (02:59)
“Don't rephrase into everyday language. Copilot matches vocabulary, not meaning. So a specific question using the report's own language gets you a consistent correct answer every time.” – Mirko Peters (04:36)
