Just last month, Mustafa Suleyman, CEO of Microsoft’s AI division, took to the stage to share some exciting news. He revealed that Microsoft would be offering OpenAI’s “truly magical” Think Deeper feature at no cost to all Copilot users. Fast forward to today, and they’ve rolled out even more magic with two powerful capabilities—Voice and Think Deeper—now available to all Copilot users without any usage limits.
Microsoft’s recent announcement gives users the freedom to engage in lengthy conversations with Copilot using Voice while tapping into Think Deeper’s advanced reasoning models. This means tackling intricate questions or tasks anytime is now possible without hitting any caps.
One of the coolest aspects they highlighted was the Voice feature. Imagine being able to practice new phrases in a different language, which could come in handy when you’re exploring a new country or mingling with folks speaking a different dialect. The potential to bridge communication gaps is now right at your fingertips.
From the company’s announcement, they had this to say about Think Deeper: It’s your go-to for navigating complex scenarios like planning big purchases, evaluating home renovation values, or even plotting out your next career move. Here are a few prompts to get your creative juices flowing:
“Compare the best electric cars with an eye on design and comfort, ensuring my purchase is ‘future-proof’. Create a unique scoring system to guide my decision-making. Or consider this: I’ve got $15K for a home renovation. Should I go for a kitchen island, an updated bathroom, or a new roof? Which option will increase my home’s value the most in the next three years? Lastly, given that my neighborhood loses power every time the wind picks up, is a generator a wise investment? What pros and cons should I weigh, considering my budget and convenience?”
Microsoft is speeding up efforts to extend these advanced features widely, kicking things off with Voice and Think Deeper. However, they caution users about potential delays or service interruptions during peak times or if security concerns or misuse arise.
Moreover, Microsoft points out how users can leverage these tools in real-life scenarios. For instance, you can simulate a job interview, preparing you with questions aligned with the job description and your skills. Plus, those tackling new recipes can enjoy hands-free guidance.
Similarly, Think Deeper acts as your smart advisor for making informed decisions on complex issues. This approach might give Microsoft’s Copilot AI service a competitive edge over ChatGPT by offering these handy features for free.
It’s interesting, especially since getting access to OpenAI’s o1 reasoning model through ChatGPT Plus usually sets users back $20 a month. Now, with Microsoft offering these premium features for nothing, there’s plenty to look forward to for Copilot users.
