At this point it’s time to create lists of “ethical” AI services, ones that aren’t OpenAI nor other bad actors. I’m dropping my ChatGPT Plus today. Any suggestions on what to replace it with?
Atlassian products are very complex. Jira alone has sophisticated low-code automation, extremely thorough templating for projects, a rich API, extensive support for i8n, meta-projects (Jira Plans), an add-on marketplace, and so on.
