Thu Oct-12-2023: The Cost of AI Innovation and California's New Tech Laws, Microsoft's Copilot Security Profile and DattoCon Hits and Misses

In this episode of "The Business of Tech," Dave Sobel covers four key topics. First, he discusses the cost of AI innovation, specifically focusing on Microsoft's GitHub copilot service, which is reportedly costing the company up to $80 per user per month. Despite the high costs, Microsoft's strategy is to build a dedicated user base and potentially increase prices in the future. The second topic explores California's new tech laws and their implications for MSPs and businesses. Next, Dave decodes the security profile of Microsoft's copilot in 365. Lastly, he reviews the hits and misses of last week's DattoCon.
