Those who know me, will know that I have a terrible relationship with tech, things randomly crash or dont' work or I can't remember how to do it. I thought I'd have a look at co-pilot to see what everyones raving about, so I clicked on it and nothing happened, nothing at all.

DId I do something wrong or has Ai decided I'm a danger to it?

  • Copilot in what app? I’m pretty good in tech having survived as a software engineer for 40 years. Can I help?

    Sorry, gbs, but I don't understand what you mean by app, my knowlege of tech is very very basic, I was sort of hoping to have an AI assistant to help me with the things I struggle with, but it seems I might not be able to do that, typical.

    Marianne it would be nice to be able to do something normal and not have this constant struggle and feeling of being blocked, I might find I dont' get on with it or don't see what all the fuss is about, it might be that it gives me the same rubbish I didn't ask for as normal search engines, it would be nice to have the choice.

    I always get confused about apps I always think they're things for phones which I don't have. I wasn't chatgp, it was co-pilot, mostly I just want to ask it stupid questions, like why dosent' tech work for me, or why does my fridge moo and baa at me? I don't know what else it could do for me as I've never used it and just thought I'd have a go and see. Maybe it could advise me where to get trousers long enough for me, or what range of bras are available in my size, stuff like that.

    I'm using my computer, an elderly acer, it has it on the list of things you might want like media player and that sort of thing. I click on it and it lights up to show it knows its been clicked on then does nothing.

    It's probably me not doing it right or its just decided to add itself to the list of things that work for everyone else except me.

    App as in application, I though by what you said it was the ChatGPT app or Microsoft something. Are you using a website? Let me know what specifically you are trying to use and I can help.

    do you just want to chat with it or get it to do things for you? If so can you say what things?

    I just tried again via a different route, it still won't open, I'm wondering if my pooter's to old to run it?
