Microsoft Copilot

About

Microsoft Copilot, previously known as Bing Chat, is a cutting-edge AI-powered chatbot feature for Microsoft Bing, designed to revolutionize the search engine experience. As a product of Microsoft, it originates from the United States. While specific founding history, revenue/financials, leadership, and employee count for Copilot itself are not detailed, it operates on a Freemium, Proprietary license. Its comprehensive product portfolio includes an AI Chatbot, AI Writing, Text to Image Generation, Image generator, Chat Bot, and offers features like suggesting and voting on features, no registration required for text chats, Dark Mode, chat history, and Text to Speech, leveraging advanced models like GPT-4o. Available across Online, Android, iPhone (via Bing App), Android Tablet, iPad (via Bing App), Mac, and Windows platforms, Copilot holds a significant market position in the AI assistant space. It competes with other major LLMs such as ChatGPT, open-source alternatives like Llama-3.3-70B and Deepsek (available via Huggingface Chat), and DDG chat. Unique details highlighted by users include its ability to research before answering, access to real-time data and up-to-date knowledge, good memory, infinite chat limit, and a minimal, calming user interface. However, it has faced criticism for its 'extremely bad guardrails' that can end conversations on sensitive topics and some users perceive it as less useful than other LLMs, with allegations of GPT-4o downgrades to reduce costs. While privacy is a concern for some, others are willing to contribute data for AI improvement, and it has notably removed previous message limits.
