Well, Copilot is an anagram of "Clip too", which is sort of like Clippy 2.0, or Clippy Too. Microsoft's really missing a trick here!

I'm 85% confident that a paperclip maximizer scenario will include Clippy in a way or another.

Ah yes, the real paperclip doomsday scenario. As was foretold.

I heard a description of Copilot as "What Microsoft thought Clippy should be". Thanks, but no thanks.

"It looks like you think whatever I am doing with all this venture capital is AGI! Should I bother to correct you?"

"Turn off Clippy" "I'm sorry Dave, I can't let you do that."

At least it would generate all kinds of memes and conspiracy. Much more entertaining and productive then Copilot.
