The price is high: here in Canada it’s $30 per user per month on top of $9.99 per month for Microsoft 365 Family. For a family of 4 that’s $147 per month with tax included, or $1740 per year if you pay the annual rate for MS 365. I can’t imagine too many people will jump on that.
I forgot people are paying for msft 365. 10$ per month is kinda crazy for software I use maybe occasionally (considering most of the functionality is already available with Google Docs, and OpenOffice gets the job done for offline usage).
The cloud storage is a pretty good value when you use the family plan as others have said. But having collaborative editing support with the full functionality of Office is very useful. I’m aware that GDocs can do it but if you’re regularly writing documents, Office has a much more intuitive interface and more advanced features that I can be very useful.
The bundled 60 international Skype minutes are also very useful when planning trips overseas.
I’ve seen estimates that it costs $30+ dollars per month per user to run these AI models. And that doesn’t even include how expensive it is to build and train these systems. I imagine this is what will ruin the appeal of AI for a lot of people, as right now we’re in the honeymoon phase where a bunch of it is free or low cost but as they raise prices it’ll get less appealing.
Codename “clippie”. LOL 😆😂.
I’ve been using heygpt.chat to interact with GPT 4. Chats are stored locally (front-end sends requests directly to openAI, no servers in the middle) and I’ve never spent more than $4 in a month, usually under $2 if you’re careful to not make long chats ,which context grows geometrically. If you make occasional use of GPT and don’t mind lacking the integrations into other services, I’d recommend it. Much cheaper than the usual $20/mo fee to access GPT 4.
Can this do web searches though?
yes, via plugins. I’ve only used it once or twice though
Idiot magnet deployed, sir!
