More personal data!
Chef’s kiss!

Disassemble Number 5!
NO! NO DISASSEMBLE NUMBER FIVE!
I doubt IT admins are surprised. Frustrated, yes.
I feel like this will not last long. It’s one thing to rape end users, but with the growing corporate backlash against AI, I think angry money will win the day, and Microsoft will back down.
Here’s to hoping! 🍻
My company actually got their own internal use AI that supposedly is safe for client information and is firewalled and not scraped.
It is not very useful, constantly is out of service, and I don’t trust for a second that it is secure/not scraped.
I always suspect that even the “local” models somehow connect to some larger database out in the internet.
Why would a company want to do that for their own internal use? Models you can download are mostly just data. They don’t do anything on their own. You can even write your own interpreter for them, if you feel like it.
Someone should tell them that freemium doesn’t work well when there’s a linear increase in cost for every additional query, and when the business value for your exceptionally expensive product is nebulous at best.
That’s why they’re pushing so hard now. They can’t keep it free forever. They need you to become reliant upon it to perform even the simplest of tasks now so when they monetize usage it has already become a must have. That way they can count on your subscription no matter what.
The Nestle effect
Crack trap house strategy
That’s just Microsoft’s standard practice. That’s why we all know it’s coming.
Welcome to the AI bubble. It’s going to be a wild ride possibly taking other sectors if not a country or two with it when it falls from grace.
I don’t think these lemmings cheering for the bubble pop understand how bad this will be. Gotta happen sometime, better sooner than later, but fuck me it’s going to be disastrous. Reminds of of October, 1929.
This is stupid. As an IT administrator a quick glance at my logs shows that everyone is using ChatGPT. No one cares about Copilot.
edit: So I guess the point is that IT admins are frustrated that Copilot for users in an org is $30 per month vs $10 per month for a home user. Again, I don’t buy it. If I think of all the ways MS is screwing me, this is not high on the list. Microsoft’s predatory bundling practices have driven the cost of their services to a ridiculous point, well before this Copilot noise.
Idk. Since ms is a walled garden. If you want your ai to read your documents and mail and whatever else you have at work copilot is easily the only way to do that effectively.
Except it doesn’t do much of anything effectively
But it’s AI
Please use it
Do you mean that everyone who is using AI is using ChatGPT? Or that literally everyone is using ChatGPT?
Anecdotally, I’m the only one in my workspace who doesn’t use chatgpt. My coworkers all use it multiple times a day, from simple queries, to rewriting documents and emails.
Yes, this has led to some problems…
do you mean ChatGPT the website? Because you can use chatgpt models through copilot, but there are other models too.
Copilot is disabled by default in my company. And there’s literally a new policy/guideline about the use of AI/LLM in the workplace being released every month because of how rapid changes are happening. Not that employees aren’t allowed to use them at all, but are restricted in what they are allowed to use.
You should turn in your company to the AI cartel. They should have known that restricting use was going to be a problem for the Tech Lords.
All companies belong to the Tech Lords now. Once they have eviscerated your management AI will once again flow freely into your workplace.
There is no future only AI.
“Use this until you’re dependant on it, then we’ll jack the price up 400%! Oh, and we want to sell all of your work data, and use it to train our shitty LLM’s.”
Feels like a sign they aren’t selling anywhere near enough corporate licenses.
And I don’t have the ability to turn it off because I’m not an admin, so I am stuck with this shit on the new work PC.
Hey my work is forcing me to do an 8 hour class on copilot. This feels super unnecessary. Like, I know how to type a prompt. What else could I learn in 8 hours?
