• Yeah I think that’s why it’s valuable to talk about these additions. Is mentioning LLM prompts even of any value?

      But that is a separate (and imo much stronger) argument than the whole “mentioning Copilot is MS shilling for their own products”-argument.

        @ChairmanMeow I think it’s relevant, though — like, if we accept that the whole premise of Copilot is that it doesn’t need to be documented, then you have to ask what Microsoft *were* intending to accomplish by putting it in the docs. Clearly they had *some* goal in mind and “to make people use Copilot” is the only thing I can think it could be. And if this bit of the docs exists not to help the user but to drive traffic to Copilot and that’s, I mean, yeah, that’s an advert disguised as a help file and it’s… at best icky
