Could a moderator change the "Teams" in the title to lowercase (as it is in the article)? Capitalizing Teams misleadingly implies it's regarding Microsoft's chat platform.

Microsoft is the misleading one here for calling their generic chat platform "Teams".

Are you also going to complain if someone releases a platform called "The"?

Someone call Apple. I've been hungry for a long time

In this case the original title is "ChatGPT for teams", so the headline was actually editorialized when it was submitted, which is discouraged by HN guidelines. Normally it would be ok to capitallize words to match what many other US publications use, but this capitalization introduces confusion. I can only speak for myself, but I made the assumption that this was an integration with MS Teams. This would have been av…

> I made the assumption that this was an integration with MS Teams. "ChatGPT for Microsoft Teams", marketed under the name Copilot, has been a Microsoft Teams feature for a while. What new thing did you expect when you read this?

I don't follow the news closely, so I was not aware that Copilot is based on ChatGPT or that MS had already integrated Copilot with Teams.

I disagree. We shouldn't assume a basic sentence capitalised word refers to a product. If a reference to a product is intended, we should clarify that association some other way; i.e. MS Teams.

We shouldn't. However a style guide that requires Title Case for a digital element that is very clearly a title (made clear by the various web design in which it appears) is outdated, and sentence case is more appropriate

Can't you use the same account on multiple phones though? I thought this is a no brainer.

This is probably correct but I'd prefer that family don't read the conversations I've had, as even if I'm not saying anything too private, it feels too intrusive (it'd be a bit like reading my inner thoughts).

Fine then. You don't want to find out your family the love you have for Roman empire. But you are a programmer, yes? So make an app that's just a wrapper for ChatGPT API's you're paying for and distribute that to your family phones. They'll use your OpenAI API key and each will have their own little ChatGPT 4 to query to. Have fun.

I want ChatGPT for Family. The free version gets a lot of use around here but the most powerful feature is the ability to search the web, which is only available to paid users. I pay $20/month for myself and I’d happily pay a bit more for the whole family, but not $20/month per person - it adds up. Family members end up asking to borrow my phone a lot to use it. Give me a 3-4 person plan that costs $30-$40/month. You…

At Kagi we plan to offer this for $20/mo and 6 family members included. You get both paid search (much better than openai bing) + AI (gpt-3.5-turbo/claude-instant). If you need gpt-4 it will be an optional $15/mo upgrade per family member.

Adjacent question, leaving aside value proposition. Do companies pay for 1000 seats like this? I didn't realize slack is $5 a user a month. Do they discount this for bulk, or are companies paying $5k/month $60k/yearly? These subscriptions must really add up.

On All In, they discussed the leverage from AI tools and they probably also meant open source, but one of the companies just rolled their own instance of a big monthly SaaS product because it was such a big expense for the startup.

This is why the price of "Enterprise" level of SaaS is always "Contact Us". Contract deals (i.e. "lock-in") are negotiated behind the scenes.

Sorry, but there's little that's unclear about what he said. "mixtral medium" is just a typo: he means mistral-medium. And GPT 4.5 is certainly not an "invention of his". Whether it exists or not (which is debatable, OpenAI said it was just mentioned in a GPT 4 hallutination and caught on), it' s a version name thrown around for like a month in forums, blog posts, news articles and such.

Being thrown around in forums doesn't make it more true..

Which is neither here nor there, since I din't claim that it is true.

I claimed it's not an "invention of his [benreesman ]", but a term that was already out there.

> Teams is a very generic product name. Microsoft can live with the consequences of that. Quite the contrary, Microsoft earns free advertisement from this. The problem is for the people that misunderstand the heading, not for Microsoft Ok, you would understand it correctly even the Zoom example. So? Heading should be optimized for the most possible amount of people, there is a clear possibility that a lot of people m…

The vast majority of people aren’t going to make the association. Even in the HN demo. I think people are vastly over estimating Microsoft’s ownership over ‘Teams’. Even within a tech context. Plus, everything we’ve seen from Microsoft in their partnership with OpenAI has been Co-Pilot. Which is why I use MS Teams daily and did not make the connection.

You are wrong and the vast majority of people are making the association.

I showed the title to five colleagues and all of them assumed it referred to Teams the product. Not to mention the overwhelming majority of people in these threads.
