Cortana is/was by far the best name of the digital assistants - probably because it was created by sci-fi story writers rather than a marketing department. They should just have upgraded her with the latest AI tech and trained her to show the same kind of sassy personality as in the games and it would have been perfect.
Who in their right mind thinks “Bing copilot” is a better name? It makes me picture something like the blow-up autopilot from Airplane!

I agree. At first I thought the goal was to get rid of an assistant in general, but just renaming it to something worse is confusing.
Bing copilot gives me Clippy vibes altogether.
AHH poor Clippy you will be missed
Cortana was a great name also because in Halo she turned evil, which is fitting for an MS product. Bing copilot gives me strong Clippy vibes.
