The hallucinations are real. I don't use them for longer stuff, I demand admin time for anything that's longer than a paragraph. But for quick office politics type stuff that I don't really care about but also need to not get ground under and also worry about coming off as blunt I'm kinda grateful to have it.

I have noticed that damn near every email I get that's longer than a paragraph seems to come from copilot though.

Tbh I'm starting to fantasize about switching to a trade. Front line office work is for the birds.
