Copilot Pro for Microsoft 365: Hidden Costs Exposed

I was one click away from purchasing Copilot Pro for Microsoft 365 Business when I noticed a tricky pricing scheme set up by Microsoft. This led me to rigorous testing of Copilot Pro with Office 365 Standard before purchasing. Between it's subpar performance when compared to competitors like Gemini and ChatGPT, I began to question whether Copilot was even worth it at all...

Microsoft eternally disappoints.

[@AnsonAlexander]

It seems like all the companies do when they get big enough.

Why not use copilot pro chat, it provides gpt-4-turbo 128k but chatgpt only 32k

[@AnsonAlexander]

I do use Copilot Pro and, yes, it should be more powerful than ChatGPT, or at least comparable but, there's something about the Copilot GPT build that just really hinders its ability to create compared to ChatGPT, in my opinion.

hi, do you have any tips for using backspace, since its hard to press it with the pinky finger, i was looking for a keyboard with extra programmable keys under the space bar or a keyboard where the spacebar is not taking much place, so i can use my right thumb for it since i dont use it while typing)-.

Very helpful. My use case is to be able to help me manage email better. Not AI-assisted writing, but providing helpful summaries of email threads, particularly long ones. Also helping me to search emails for a topic.... something that goes beyond the Neanderthal native search capabilities of Outlook!

[@AnsonAlexander]

Have you tried Copilot for that yet? I know it has some Outlook integration but I don't use Outlook (yet) so I haven't given it a try. I'm sure Gemini will be in Gmail soon and that will be a big help for those using the Google ecosystem for email.
