github copilot are cucking their student licenses starting today. the free ride is almost over. this is only the first step, next is price increases for all. you WILL start paying what ai actually costs.
Oh shitttt I'll have to actually study now??????
>GitHub Copilot student licenseUse case?
>>108357407>GitHub CopilotUse case?
I don't give a shit, I use GitLabeven while studying, I had access to the GitHub student shit but there was nothing I would have cared enough. Microsoft is like an octopus which is grabbing naive students into their ecosystem to make you dependent.listen faggots, you don't need GitHub student shit to be a good and successful student.
>>108357379I don't use it hehe.
>>108357379Bobble going pop huh!?
>>108357379I don’t think they gave the addiction period (the first sniff is free) enough time.I already dropped it because i spend more time fixing its fuck-ups.
>student>have something else do your learning materials
>>108358084It's intellectual cuckoldry.
>>108358084>go to welding school>ignore certain tools because they make things easier
>>108357379>try model x through the web chat / terminal app>decent results>try the same model thru copilot>unusable trash, as in "did I actually use local llama 3.1 instead"idk how they achieved it but the wuality is fucking abysmal, I wouldn’t use it for free
It's all going to shit now. Even Twitter doesn't allow users to ask @grok anything anymore unless they're paying Elon's subscription.
@gork why does it smell so weird in my room
>>108359173being skilled mechanic you dont do things and do not touch any of those tool with exceptions
>>108357379such is the fate of all cloud productsgo local brothers

Actually to think of it any university worth anything should provide internal local AI to its students
>>108357379The closed source big models are already way above what it costs to run them in price. You can rent a system that can run any (open) model for like $16/hr. That system can generate in total around 2-3 million tokens in that hour even on the biggest models.OpenAI charges $15 per 1m tokens in their API. They are making money hand over fist with inference. This has to cover the cost of training, so it's hard to tell how profitable they are, but they are definitely making money selling access to their models. Also consider that the GPU renting service is also making money on this, as is their ISP and the power company. There are many ways here where you could cut costs further if you did it yourself on a large enough scale.
>>108357379I've just been using the plain copilot on microsoft's website.
>>108359704local ai is garbage unless you have at least 512GB ram (better yet 768/1TB) for one of the fatass models like kimi 2.5 at q4, and even if you got a desktop like that for free you’d probably pay more for electricity than for cheapo model on openrouter.people use local models for weird ass fetish furry pedo erp where wuality doesn’t really matter, not for anything useful
kek get fucked poorfags
>>108359721It doesn't scale. Consumers will not pay for these models, the only business you get is enterprise, and they will rape your servers.Are they making money? No, due to server costs. There's this mass delusion across the whole industry that if you give this shit away for free for a bit, people will decide they need it to live and start paying for it, so they're essentially subsidizing the whole data center with investment money. Eventually, retards are going to expect a return on their inflated stocks, and then everything goes pop.
