Although I have an official license, the AI Assistant does not work for me. The following message appears:
"Oh no...
You do not have the necessary permissions to use the AI Assistant. Contact your system administrator for more information."
What do I need to enable in the system settings (Win 11) for it to work?

It may seem like a coincidence, or providence, but that's exactly what I wrote above...

Now it becomes even more apparent that the perpetual license users are totally cut off from next/future features and developments:
In their own words:
"Product Roadmap: All About AI Assistant"
Product Roadmap: All About AI Assistant 🌟
So, why should I continue paying the maintenance fee (Forward)?

Thank you for sharing your concerns so openly!
To clarify the wording: when I titled the post “All About AI Assistant”, my aim was to point everyone in this AI-related group to where they can find information about the AI Assistant’s direction in our Product Roadmap, which felt most relevant here in this AI Solutions group. Other improvements for our solutions are also being added, so it’s not just AI-related updates. My apologies if the phrasing was confusing. We are fully committed to enhancing the design experience and supporting smooth collaboration across Graphisoft and sister brands' solutions, with different stakeholders and ecosystem; so it's not only about AI, but a broad range of improvements, innovations. But yes, AI does play a key role in our product strategy.
On the technical side, I’m sincerely sorry if this change feels disappointing. The AI Assistant is a cloud-based service and, by its nature, is only available for subscription users. We understand this is a significant shift.
Thank you, @Roman-PS and everyone, sincerely, for being so open and honest with us, and for contributing to this forum with AI-related ideas and feedback on how it could be most useful for the daily design work.
