    For the first time, I tried the "Fix with Copilot" button. I used it for the most trivial thing: changing 'Postgresql' to 'PostgreSQL' in a comment.

    And this obscure error happened:
    Failed to Fix with Copilot. Please try again. (422)

    (I tried again, it failed again.)

    I thought that maybe it could be faster than me manually fixing the capitalisation of PostgreSQL in the source file. Turns out it was not since

    1. It did not work at all
    2. I took that screenshot and wrote that rant
    3. I fixed it manually anyway

    Shit like that is not going to improve my opinion of AI (which isn’t very high to begin with).
