Microsoft Copilot (formerly called Bing Chat and Bing Chat Enterprise) debuted in public preview for users in February 2023. The model has now reached general availability for users. The Redmond-headquartered tech giant has announced the availability of Copilot as it exited public preview. For the unaware, the AI-powered web chat model uses GPT-4, according to the company.

The chat model offers up-to-date information while citing sources. Once eligible accounts sign in using a work or school account, they get data protection free of charge. This implies that prompts and replies are not reviewed or used for training the underlying large language model (LLM). "Current eligible licenses include Microsoft 365 E3, E5, Microsoft 365 A3, A5 (faculty only), Microsoft 365 F3, Business Standard, and Business Premium," Microsoft said in a blog post.

"Copilot is now generally available and no longer in preview. With general availability, Microsoft Copilot continues to be your everyday AI companion providing AI-powered web chat," Microsoft added. The model can help you with tasks such as drafting emails, summarising web texts, generating images (backed by DALL-E 3), learning skills and more.

Copilot with "commercial data protection" is governed by the Universal Commercial License Terms for Online Services to align with Microsoft commercial online services. The terms incorporate the Customer Copyright Commitment (CCC) that lets accounts take benefit of the Copilot "services without worrying about copyright" issues.

The updated interface for Copilot is rolling out for users over time. For the unversed, Copilot is Microsoft's AI innovation in this artificial intelligence space. It competes next to OpenAI's ChatGPT and Google's Bard. Earlier called Bing Chat, the upgrade helped the company recover some lost fortunes of the search engine and Microsoft Edge during the public preview. The AI enhancements were also integrated across a suite of products at the Microsoft Ignite 2023 event. You can read more on this here.
