no idea need to login to my workspace admin and see may need to upgrade from whatever comes with workspace standard to something more advanced. I've used grok and chatgpt quite a bit for other things and they've been useful but really want to automate some data collection in email.

I admit that I need to get up to speed on AI apps, etc. I also have a 10 year old iPhone. I need to take a great leap forward tech wise for sure. But I’ve been retired from a regular job so never felt the need.

I got some bad news Harry. If your company is using Entra or has a MS corp domain. They have access to your sensitive files already.
Some companies have policies against putting proprietary information into AI. It’s not that the files are sensitive to your company, it’s that the files are sensitive therefore they don’t want the files put into an AI domain that may be accessible by outside actors.

Like I said earlier, a few good interns would be more valuable to me than copilot is.
Copilot costs $30 a month.

Old enough to have lived (not just being alive) in a world pre internet and young enough to not be mystified by new technologies and actually embrace and use them in meaningful productive ways.

Can be useful in churning out simple forms, but still worlds away from being able to do actual, intensive analytic work. We also don't trust that shite at all with the sensitive data we use
Preach brother!

"dinosaur"
I'm in general agreement with you. Anyone faced with a task that requires sorting out a long list of complex instructions will definitely benefit using an AI agent. Even the "no extra cost" offerings like Copilot (MS), Gemini (Google), etc. are capable. Most would like to sell you upgrades. The real issue about the agents is the quality of the materials they are trained on. For example Copilot does a poor job helping you fix Windows 11th problems. MS' online help data used for training is full of contradicts, errors, and omissions. For people concerned about MS versus Apple. The latter is subbing out AI to Google.

Yea I get that. But what I’m saying is most of that proprietary info is on share point or onedrive.
Since we’re talking about copilot, another MS product, it’s going to integrate with that by default in most if not all cases.

Anthropic showing us the future of AI (of course, they would never do this, just like Google would never be evil).

Only boomers think Copilot is peak AI

People at my company can’t even manage to unbold random words when copying and pasting from Chatgpt.
