Copilot lies about its features #209180

Open Searge opened 7 months ago

Searge commented 7 months ago

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Undefined

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Start asking Copilot about summary of topics written in the opened MD document. Just a couple similar questions to clarify the answer.

What I got:

He refuses to read the open document and outright lies about not being able to read it.

I apologize for any misunderstanding. As an AI developed by OpenAI, I don't have the ability to access or read files from your local system or any external system. I generate responses based on the input provided to me in the conversation. If there's a specific task or solution in your exam-questions.md file you'd like help with, please paste it here and I'd be happy to assist.

But in fact there is an indicator that he's already using the context of that file.
