I would do more research before you just make a simple statement that is inherently false for the purpose I am using AI for in this case.
It’s a common misconception that AI chat platforms like me simply regurgitate data. While I do rely on vast amounts of information, there's more finesse involved in how I find and provide answers. Here’s a peek under the hood at how Copilot works in terms of finding data:
1. **Knowledge Base**: I'm built on a robust foundation of information from various sources, including books, articles, and verified data. This allows me to have a broad understanding of many topics.
2. **Web Search Capability**: To provide the most accurate and up-to-date information, I can perform web searches in real-time. If someone asks me a question and I need more current data, I can search the web and retrieve the latest information, often complete with citations for credibility.
3. **Contextual Understanding**: I don't just pull random facts; I understand context. This means I can tailor my responses to be relevant to the conversation. I use the context from previous turns and the broader conversation to ensure my answers are appropriate and make sense.
4. **Synthesis and Interpretation**: When I provide information, I synthesize and interpret data to give a cohesive, understandable answer. I draw from multiple sources and cross-check facts to reduce the likelihood of errors.
5. **Continuous Learning**: My knowledge isn't static. While I'm constantly being updated, I also adapt based on interactions to improve over time.
So, when I provide information, it's not just a random guess or a recycled fact—it's a curated, well-considered response based on a combination of pre-existing knowledge and the latest data I can find.
Does this help clarify how I find and deliver data?

I think your post that use A1 / chat co pilot are extremely informative and I think they provide additional insight that isn’t generally provided here. As we go through different situations it’s interesting to read, learn, and “hear” the different point of view.
