I have to test it with Copilot for work. So far, in my experience its "enhanced capabilities" mostly involve doing things I didn't ask it to do extremely quickly. For example, it massively fucked up the CSS in an experimental project when I instructed it to extract a React element into its own file.

That's literally all I wanted it to do, yet it took it upon itself to make all sorts of changes to styling for the entire application. I ended up reverting all of its changes and extracting the element myself.

Suffice to say, I will not be recommending GPT 5 going forward.

Ai assumes too fucking much. I'd used it to set up a new 3D printer with klipper to save some searching.

Half the shit it pulled down was Marlin-oriented then it had the gall to blame the config it gave me for it like I wrote it.

"motherfucker, listen here..."
