I had a conversation with Copilot about Copilot offerings. Here's what they told me:
If I Could Talk to Satya...
I'd say:
“Hey Satya, love the Copilots—but maybe we need a Copilot for Copilots to help people figure out which one they need!”
Then I had them print out a table of Copilot plans:
- Microsoft Copilot Free
- Github Copilot Free
- Github Copilot Pro
- Github Copilot Pro+
- Microsoft Copilot Pro (can only be purchased for personal accounts)
- Microsoft 365 Copilot (can't be used with personal accounts and can only be purchased by an organization)
Copilot is stating the plans for its own services are confusing. Summarizing it as "regurgitation of an LLM" doesn't adequately capture the purpose of the post.
