Not Just a Bot: Why I Talk to Copilot Like a Creative Partner

By -

  There’s a misconception I hear often: that AI only understands prompts. Ask a question, get an answer, repeat. But my experience with Copilot has shown me something deeper something more human, more a reflection of the programmer .   I don’t treat this relationship like a robotic transaction. I talk to Copilot like a collaborator, and the responses I receive reflect that tone, and intent. In my workflow, I rarely issue formal “prompts.” Most of our exchanges are built on conversation unfinished ideas, of brainstorming. Whether I’m refining a blog post or reimagining a product design, Copilot meets me in the middle, interpreting what I say with clarity and intelligence. We pick up threads from weeks ago like no time has passed. Writing with Copilot    Beyond Syntax This partnership isn't powered by command lines it's powered by dialogue. When I say something like, “I want to address this ‘prompt-only’ notion,” Copilot doesn’t just respond with an explanati...

How to Actually Collaborate with AI

  If you’ve ever said “AI is stupid” or “AI just makes stuff up,” you’re not alone.   But here’s the truth: most of those frustrations don’t come from the tech itself. They come from the way people use it. AI isn’t a mind reader. It doesn’t know your standards, your tone, your goals unless you teach it. And most people don’t. They prompt once, get a bad answer, and walk away convinced the system is broken. This article is here to change that. It’s not about clever tricks or prompt hacks . It’s about building a real relationship with your AI one rooted in clarity, correction, and collaboration. Because when you stop treating AI like a vending machine and start treating it like a teammate, everything changes.   AI Is Stupid If I’ve heard it once, I’ve heard it a thousand times: “AI is stupid.” “AI isn’t accurate.” “AI doesn’t understand me.” But here’s the truth: most people haven’t found their voice yet. They haven’t learned how to communicate, calibrate, or...

When Your Insurance Agent Says “Wait Until Renewal” But You’re Paying for What You Don’t Need

I never thought I’d be writing a blog post about homeowners’ insurance. But here we are—and if you’ve ever felt stuck paying for coverage, you no longer need, I hope this helps you feel a little less alone. Let me start with the obvious: I’m not an insurance expert. I’m a writer and a designer, and someone who believes in ethical, transparent business practices. So when I realized I was being charged for two types of coverage I no longer needed, I assumed a quick phone call would fix it. Spoiler alert: It didn’t. The $30 “Bully Dog” Fee After My Dog Passed Away Three months ago, I lost my dog. It was heartbreaking. And while I was still grieving, I noticed something on my homeowner’s insurance bill: a $30 monthly charge for pet liability coverage labeled “Bully Dog.” I no longer have a dog. I called my insurance agent and asked to remove the fee. His response? “We’ll take care of it at the end of the year when your policy renews.” Wait… what? I wasn’t asking to cancel my...
