Microsoft’s Copilot is stupid, I replaced it with ChatGPT
Tired of Microsoft's terrible AI assistant, I promoted ChatGPT to my PC's Copilot key.

Right or wrong, Microsoft thinks that one of the big reasons to upgrade to a new Copilot Plus PC is a dedicated key to launch its new AI assistant. Smash that button where trusty right ctrl used to be, and you’ll be treated with a popup chat window for Copilot. Handy, but what if you want to use that key for something else, say launching a better AI model?
I’ve been using the Microsoft Surface Laptop (7th gen) for a couple of months now and am enjoying the Snapdragon X-powered experience for the most part. However, I can probably count the number of times I’ve clicked that Copilot key on my fingers. It’s not that I don’t find AI useful; I use ChatGPT fairly regularly, especially for coding. It’s more that Copilot is, well, just a bit naff by comparison, and why settle for an inferior option?
