Found this the other day on GitHub and have been meaning to try it out. Guess I'll be setting up the backend and modifying the hardcoded config in the extension.
Hostility is definitely not the intention, which is why we provide a way to turn it off in the config.
But looks like we should provide a way to turn it off in a settings page somewhere too.
The name we use for software that contains such functionality serving only its remote developer is “spyware”.
Did I miss something?
[edit: The summaries are usually bad and I always want to refer back to what was specifically said through LLM Q+A]
Just click on the download transcript
But thank you, need to update the readme now :D
Do you have any suggestions for the copy?
What you wrote above is clear and helpful to me - and in any case I find it more useful than "it's free (for now)".
Do this for Outlook and Teams.
You can sign up here if you want to be informed when we launch it.

Edit: I found one for GitHub Copilot but no evidence of an unqualified trademark:
Trying to trademark copilot is trying to trademark something like ASI or AGI. Co-pilot has been widely used in the aviation industry, and by definition means a person/companion who can help you navigate.
So, I hope their trademark request gets rejected ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
You should think about what might get you in legal trouble, whether you might prevail is not relevant to your bottom line unless you are a Fortune 500 yourself.
The real world isn't quite that bad, so OP is correct to observe that Microsoft does not in fact have a trademark on Copilot, they have a pending trademark on Microsoft Copilot and GitHub Copilot. Given that their own trademarks (owned by different subsidiaries) include a second word to qualify them and would pose a substantial risk of confusion with each other if Copilot alone were treated as the mark, I think it's reasonable to argue that Microsoft couldn't claim a trademark on Copilot, unqualified, and is unlikely to even try to assert it.
That is my conclusion yes.
Normal people in the workforce know their boring job that this is trying to help automate isn't that complicated or exciting. The analogy with aviation couldn't make less sense for most jobs when trying to automate the boring aspects.
Wishing the project well, but this is where it stops for me unfortunately.
Are there any similar tools that aren't browser dependent?
We might come up with something like this ;) What platform do you use for meetings? Or these some other issue for it being made for Chrome?
1. Work outside of the browser altogether (i.e., be built as an app for the OS), or 2. Integrate directly into the service it is targeting (i.e., G Suite add-ons, etc.)
I may be in the minority.
