Microsoft’s Copilot Pro: Your Personal AI Assistant in Office Apps
Microsoft's latest subscription, Copilot Pro, offers AI-powered document summarization, email response suggestions, and data analysis for all Microsoft 365 and Office users.
Copilot’s Office features will cost $20 per month.
Microsoft is once again expanding its integration of artificial intelligence (AI) technology by introducing a new service called Copilot Pro. This service will be available for Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, and OneNote, allowing users to accomplish various tasks, such as generating full PowerPoint slideshows with just a few words typed into the chatbot. 🤖💡
Although the idea of having generative AI integrated into Office apps was already exciting, it was previously limited only to enterprise accounts as part of Copilot in Microsoft 365. Fortunately, the availability of this option has now been extended to all Microsoft 365 and Office customers. However, the service will no longer be free. 📝💰
Following the pricing scheme of ChatGPT Plus, Copilot Pro will cost $20 per month. By subscribing to Copilot Pro, users will enjoy faster results, have priority access, and be able to customize their experience through Copilot GPT Builder. This service works on Windows PCs, Macs, and iPads, with iPhone and Android support coming next month. 🚀🔒
Enhanced AI models, including OpenAI’s powerful GPT-4 Turbo, will be available for Copilot Pro subscribers. Copilot GPT Builder enables users to create Copilot GPTs optimized for specific topics like fitness, cooking, and travel. This feature is similar to OpenAI’s GPT Editor for ChatGPT Plus and Enterprise subscribers. 🏋️♂️🍳✈️
With Copilot Pro, AI can assist users with emails, documents, and spreadsheets by creating summaries, writing responses, and analyzing data. This eliminates the need for copying and pasting text between apps and an AI, saving users significant time and potentially increasing their productivity. ⏰📧📊
Moreover, Copilot Pro includes enhanced AI image creation based on Dall-E 3. This feature provides users with up to 100 boosts, resulting in quicker creation of more detailed images. Additionally, users now have the option to choose a landscape format for their images. 🖼️🎨
It’s important to note that Copilot is still available for free on Windows with the core protections and values of Microsoft’s AI. The built-in web grounding of Copilot ensures that responses are relevant and useful, while the commercial data protection prevents the use of user data for training and does not save prompts. 🌐🔒
Microsoft Copilot is the new name for the generative text chatbot previously known as Bing Chat, while Bing Image Creator is now called Microsoft Designer. Microsoft continues to expand Copilot support and is even adding a custom Copilot key to Windows keyboards. 🖥️⌨️
If you’re seeking the extra speed, ease of use, and flexibility of Copilot Pro, and the $20 per month fee is within your budget, you can subscribe to the service on Microsoft’s online store. 💻💸
