Dear Ecom's Genie Subscribers,
In the ever-evolving world of AI, we are thrilled to bring you the latest updates and alternatives that might pique your interest.
Microsoft's Copilot Takes Center Stage:
Microsoft has rolled out Copilot, an AI helper, to over 280 million Teams users this month. This powerful tool offers features like meeting summaries, transcriptions, note-taking, drafting messages in Teams chats, and even cleaning up messy backgrounds for virtual meetings. It's a significant leap in AI integration at the workplace.
The Burning Questions:
As AI at work becomes a reality, questions arise: Will people embrace Copilot? Will companies be willing to invest an extra $30/month/user for Copilot? Early indications are positive, with 77% of users not wanting to give it up and 70% reporting increased productivity. The pathway to access Copilot, however, is a bit convoluted.

Alternatively, consider exploring Claude, ranked #2 behind GPT-4, and Perplexity, a fast AI search engine, on their $20/month Pro plan.
