• saved results from Copilot, get blank when loading them back

    I was researching a rather arcane algorithm. The author only gave 4 conferences papers about it, so only abstracts are available. Never
    published as a full journal paper, and no patent exists for it.
    So feed those 4 conference papers into AI chatbots to get a "how it
    works". Gemini and Meta AI were useless, it was too niche for them. Only Copilot produced a plausible summary. So save that as mhtml. Then at
    bottom there are options to go into more detail. So click on each of
    them, they were useful, so save each one as mhtml.
    But later try to open those mhtml files with Edge, only the first
    displays and the others are mostly blank. But all were similar size 900
    kB. Is Microsoft poisoning the html so you can't save the info but have
    to go back and run their chatbot all the time?

    maybe you should cut'n'paste into a word processor, then save as html if needed in that format

    search for "MHTML to PDF" there are a number of options.

    Next time I will do print to PDF instead, althought that is flaky too in Firefox.

    I believe Co-Pilot routes queries to different models rather than being
    a model itself - maybe that's why it's better.
