Venture = CoPilot

Below is how I contribute to MSCP flatlining.

looking at the way copilot was rolled out at Microsoft, none of this is particularly surprising.

early on, they shoehorned LLMs into most of their products in the least thoughtful way possible — I guess leadership thought it best to move quietly for first-mover advantage.

I remember looking at copilot enterprise pricing at that time and thinking “this is delusional.”

and it still is! $31.50 per user, per month… that is more than most other LLM “pro” subscriptions. the value prop just never made sense when the outputs tend to be worse than what you get using ChatGPT.

I don’t know what they were thinking. They could’ve made it an offer, but pushing things on people like that just doesn’t work well.

Haha, just keep pretending Google doesn't exist!

A decade ago, I held out hope that Nadella could rejuvenate Microsoft and allow it to recover from its complete miss with Windows Phone and the flirtation with mobile-first. A decade on, his repeated lapses have left me feeling Microsoft needs new leadership.

Does anyone really care about any tech companies any more?

Doesn't Microsoft own like, $13,000,000,000 of OpenAi, that owns ChatGPT?

"We've got an exciting match for you tonight folks! In this corner its Microsoft, vs their arch rival ... Microsoft. Ouch, Microsoft delivers a nasty 1-2 combo to Microsoft. Got em up against the ropes Microsoft."

Anyways, this is pretty classic Microsoft [1]

The copilot deployment isn’t the problem. The problem is copilot is bad.
