Microsoft is expanding its AI strategy by making the “Copilot” assistant, including ChatGPT, available to consumers for $20 per month.
For $20 a month, they get access to the latest version of the chatbot ChatGPT as well as functions for creating images, as the company announced last night.
Consumers who have a subscription to Microsoft’s Office software will also be able to use AI functions there. The Enterprise version removes the requirement to have at least 300 subscriptions.
Microsoft had signed a billion-dollar pact with the ChatGPT developer company OpenAI and tried to integrate functions based on artificial intelligence into all of its products under the “Copilot” name. The group will thus become a driving force in the increased use of AI in various areas. Now Microsoft is also introducing an app for Android smartphones and iPhones with “Copilot” functions.
