Microsoft Copilot is Getting GPT-4 Turbo, New DALL-E 3 Model, And More

Despite the recent turmoil at OpenAI, Microsoft is planning to bring new capabilities to its Copilot assistant, which is the new name of the ChatGPT-powered Bing chatbot that launched earlier this year. Yusuf Medhi, Executive Vice President and Consumer Chief Marketing Officer at Microsoft detailed today what’s coming to Copilot very soon, including OpenAI’s latest GPT-4 Turbo model.

“Soon, Copilot will be able to generate responses using OpenAI’s latest model, GPT-4 Turbo, enabling you to tackle more complex and longer tasks. This model is currently being tested with select users and will be widely integrated into Copilot in the coming weeks,” Medhi said today.

Here are the other new Copilot features Microsoft announced today:

New DALL-E 3 model: Available today, a new version of OpenAI’s text-to-image model can create higher-quality images that also more accurately represent what’s in the prompt.

Deep Search: Currently an experimental Bing feature, Deep Search aims to provide better answers to complex queries by combining information from Bing’s web index with GPT-4 results. The Bing team said that Deep Search provides “deeper and richer exploration of the web,” but it won’t be replacing the current Bing search.

Multi-Modal with Search Grounding: When asking Copilot to analyze an image, the AI assistant will also leverage information from Bing image search and web search to provide more accurate answers.

Code Interpreter: Copilot will soon be able to answer complex queries that include math, coding, data analysis, and more.

Microsoft Copilot is now available on a standalone website, copilot.microsoft.com, but it’s also integrated into Windows 11 and coming soon to Windows 10. While Microsoft Copilot is free to use, Microsoft is also offering a paid version named Copilot for Microsoft 365 (previously Microsoft 365 Copilot) that offers AI assistance in Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, Teams, and more.
