  • For light users, $36/mo is very expensive. However, for middle and upper management types that live, breathe, and eat PowerPoint, this is huge. If this is good enough to allow non-technical people to connect to their BI and generate charts and reports without the need of IT, it will be incredibly cheap to them. There’s a whole cottage industry of consultants for small business who do these sorts of things so having this automated will save time and cost for these businesses.

    As a developer, I’m still interested in seeing what CoPilot integrated in my development environment will be able to do. My company is currently paying for ChatGPT+ at $20/mo for me. At my salary, it’s a no brainer since even an hour a month is a huge ROI. However, it’s quite manual since I have to copy paste everything. If I can get ChatGPT 4 with the full context of my project, $36/mom is a no brainer. If we can get a private version that is trained on our company code base, it will be a game changer.






  • I think this could be very valuable for the community and the Lemmy devs. However, I believe to be successful, there needs to be a volunteer(s) who “sync” the community to the GitHub issues. We could automate this but that would make the situation worse. Here’s how I could imagine this working:

    When a new feature or bug is posted, the mod determines if this is duplicated or not. If so, they will reply to the post with a link to the previous post and lock the current one. If it is truly new, the community can vote and comment. After a week or so, if the community supports the new feature or fixing the bug, the mod will open a new GitHub issue with a summary of the community discussion and link to the discussion.

    This is a lot of work for the mods, but I believe it would really add value for both the Lemmy community and the devs.



  • My first GM vehicle was a C7 Chevrolet Corvette. I wanted it since it was announced in 2014 but held out until 2016 when it finally got CarPlay. I’ve since traded it in for the 2020 C8 Corvette that also has CarPlay. I bought a dongle that enables wireless CarPlay so I don’t even need to plug it in.

    I absolutely love my Corvette and would be interested in buying the next generation. However, I will not consider it or any other GM vehicle if CarPlay is dropped. It is a mandatory feature for me.
