Microsoft’s artificial intelligence assistant,Copilot, has received an upgrade to its free tier.
GPT-4 Turbo, the OpenAI model that powers Copilot Pro, is now available if you use Copilot free.
“Copilot Pro users remain able to toggle GPT-4 Turbo on or off in Creative mode.”
Tokens are pieces of words.
Copilot was launched last year to add AI across Microsoft’s platforms.
It will also be added to the Microsoft 365 app and Outlook oniOSandAndroidin the next few months.
OpenAI, meanwhile, is now letting usersbuild special-purpose AI apps.
And its AI chatbot rivals, from Google Gemini toAnthropic’s Claude,continue to upgrade their offerings.
Is GPT-4.5 Turbo coming next?
It’s unclear why Microsoft decided to bring GPT-4 Turbo to its free Copilot tier.
Microsoft intentionally offered a more-capable AI model in Copilot Pro to attract users to the paid version.
That said, Microsoft’s decision could also be a tell.
OpenAI is rumored to be working on a new model called GPT-4.5 Turbo.
