I've found Copilot to be good for my needs. It's super helpful when dealing with several things. I use AI as a tool and that's helpful for me. Good for deep Web searches.

I find them especially helpful for the random PowerShell or Bash commands when you need something in particular.

I always try and do it myself first just to make sure I can, then I paste what I've come up with into one of these chat bots and usually come away amazed at how efficient the code it spits back is. What I was doing in 8 or 10 lines it was able to do in 4.

e.g: Get all distribution lists from Exchange Online and then show all the members of each in two columns as "Name" and "Email Address".
