Concerns

The Copilot app lacks real integration with applications, functioning merely as a chat window, which undermines its utility compared to competitors like Claude.
Microsoft's inconsistent rollout of Copilot has led to frustration, as users find more value in Anthropic's offerings for getting work done effectively.
The reliance on web-based experiences for Copilot indicates a lack of innovation, making it feel outdated and less functional than expected.
