Microsoft has just made its Copilot GPT-4 model free and available to everyone

Given that Microsoft and OpenAI have close ties, the AI assistant from the Redmond giant, Copilot, has had access to some of the most advanced AI models.

However, some of these features are locked behind a paid plan, with Microsoft offering Copilot Pro for people who want more from their assistants.

Now, Microsoft has confirmed that the GPT-4 Turbo model of Copilot is officially free to use, which means you don’t need a Copilot Pro plan to use it.

The GPT-4 Turbo model from Copilot is now free to use

The news broke in a post by Mikhail Parakhin on Twitter. Copilot is part of Mikhail’s wheel, and he has been the source of many Copilot-related news in the past. This time, he has announced that the GPT-4 Turbo models of Copilot are now free for everyone, with no need to pay.

From the comments it is clear that GPT-4 Turbo will be activated if you set Copilot in Creative mode or in Precise mode. Therefore, make sure to enable these options if you want to try GPT-4 Turbo.

What is the main cause of Microsoft’s sudden generosity? There have been rumors that OpenAI is working on a GPT-4.5 Turbo, which could be released soon. If this is true, then it makes sense why Microsoft has suddenly released the GPT-4 Turbo from the paid level; they are simply making room for a newer model.

Throughout Copilot’s history, we may see this happen repeatedly. Copilot Pro members will always have access to the latest and greatest technology, and as soon as something better is released, the model moves to the free level.
