Interesting video covering the financials behind the Microsoft and Open AI partnership. Worth a watch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MXe9Zm0QFsE
everything they touch turns to slop. you love to see it
no.summarize it it in your own words.
USE AI MORE!THE INVESTORS ARE GETTING WORRIED!
it hilarious how OpenAI stabbed Microslop in the back and secretly sold their services to Amazon. this gonna get messy
>>108684879>Sam ripped off Microsoft for free hosting. >Copilot bad. >Microsoft is losing money. >Their only consumer products are Windows and Office. >They tried to force feed copilot onto these customers.>Only about 2% actually paid the extra $30/year for the features.
why is CoPilot so bad when its just ChatGPT with a paintjob?
>>108684897Just to clarify that last point. These were customers who were already subscribed to 365, and refused to stick around once the price hiked. It was possible to cancel and then resume the 'classic' plan, but they clearly do not take their customers seriously anymore. I'm actually looking at setting up OwnCloud Infinite Scale (go rewrite, not the PHP crap) to see if using that plus OnlyOffice can replace the needs for my small network.
>>108684885>Partner with the biggest scammer in big tech at the time>Get scammeduh oh
>>108684904The Copilot chat is actually fine. However Microsoft is losing money running that, so they have to hope people buy premium copilot services or get hooked on using it in Office. The Office integration that is absolutely useless (in my experience), and by their own admission, only 2% of office customers kept it. I really like Excel, but it's very important to make sure there are no mistakes in your data, and they have taken some steps to make sure formulas are consistent. With AI generated formulas, and the potential for hallucinated data, who's going to want that?
>>108684904ChatGPT is quite bad.
>>108684939>the potential for hallucinated data, who's going to want that?exactly. its completely untrustworthy making it pointless other than for entertainment.
>>108684940Gemma4:26b running locally is already good enough for a significant number of things people used to pay ChatGPT for not that long ago. I guess the money is in replacing programmers, but so far the only 'use case' is replacing crappy webdevs and eliminating some junior programming positions.
>>108684945>for entertainment.You probably intended that, but for those who don't know, their Terms of Use actually stated Copliot was for 'Entertainment Use Only'. That's a legalize trick, but still hilarious. They've been running around getting people not to pay attention to it.
>>108684946Only reason people keep using ChatGPT is because it's been the first and most known and "use ChatGPT" already became synonyme for using AI. Despite it being only a mediocre model at best.
>>108684827>is replacing crappy webdevs and eliminating some junior programming positionsIt even fails at that.>open ChatGPT>Browser uses more than 300% CPU before even having typed a word.Vibe coding will be our demise.
