A user says they are “using AI like it’s 1999” after turning the GitHub Copilot app into a canvas for rebuilding Windows Live Writer.
- The post highlights a nostalgic, natural-language way to recreate an old Windows-era workflow.
- It’s both a product-use example and a small meme about AI making old software feel newly accessible.
- The quoted message frames the experience as asking for a tool and having it appear, Star Trek-style.
