Microsoft Copilot App for Android
Microsoft Copilot looks to have quietly been made available to Android users. Copilot, powered by the most recent OpenAI models GPT-4 and DALL-E 3, can generate content and create visuals from simple text descriptions and requests. It combines Microsoft's Bing Chat AI chatbot and other existing AI technologies into a generative AI assistant. Although the business has not officially announced the release, Microsoft Copilot is now available for download on Google's Play Store for all Android users.
Microsoft rebranded its Bing Chat AI as Copilot
The Microsoft Copilot Play Store listing (originally discovered by Neowin) displays the software as free, implying that there may be in-app purchases. According to the Play Store page, the app was last updated on 19 December. In September of this year, Microsoft rebranded its Bing Chat AI as Copilot. Unlike Bing Chat, however, the new app is only focused on offering access to Microsoft's AI conversation assistant. There are no distractions from Bing's search engine or prizes in this new app, but adverts will occasionally appear.
According to the ad, Copilot provides free access to OpenAI's GPT-4 and DALL-E 3 artificial intelligence models, which are said to provide users with "fast, complex, and precise responses, as well as the ability to create breathtaking visuals" based on simple text inputs.
Users do not need to sign in to a Microsoft account to utilise the Microsoft Copilot app for Android
Signing in with a Microsoft email ID, on the other hand, allows for "more questions" and "longer conversations" with the chatbot, according to the company. The programme also requests approximate location permission, which is optional. Users can allow GPT-4 access via a toggle in the Microsoft Copilot app, which the app warns will be "slower while being creative."
Meanwhile, according to a claim from Windows Latest quoting corporate sources, Microsoft is working on an iOS version of Copilot. The story states it is "nearly ready" and could launch soon, but no timetable exists. IOS users can now utilise the Bing Chat app to access Microsoft Copilot.
