Microsoft is significantly boosting its Copilot AI assistant by integrating the cutting-edge GPT-5 models from OpenAI across its entire ecosystem. This upgrade impacts Microsoft 365 Copilot, Azure AI Foundry, and GitHub Copilot, bringing enhanced intelligence and performance to a wide range of users. A new ‘smart mode’ allows Copilot to dynamically select the optimal GPT-5 model for each task, balancing reasoning power and response speed. Both free users of ChatGPT and Copilot will experience the benefits of GPT-5, while Microsoft 365 Copilot subscribers gain access to even more advanced capabilities, including improved understanding of complex queries and user context. Code generation within GitHub Copilot also sees a notable upgrade. GPT-5, available in four distinct versions, showcases significant advancements in logical reasoning and code quality. Developers can leverage GPT-5’s power within their own AI-powered applications through Azure AI Foundry.
