If you're talking about a service like copilot and your employer won't buy a license for money reasons - run far and run fast.

My partner used to be a phone tech at a call center and when those folks refused to buy anything but cheap chairs (for the people sitting all day) it was a pretty clear sign that their employer didn't know shit about efficiency.

The amount you as an employee cost your employer in payroll absolutely dwarfs any little productivity tool you could possibly want.

That all said - for ethical reasons - fuck chatbot AIs (ML for doing shit we did pre chatgpt is cool though).
