The world of AI chatbots is evolving faster than many of us can keep up. These powerful language models are infiltrating the way we work, search the web, and even how we think about information. Companies have been swift to understand the potential, with OpenAI’s GPT-4 and Google’s Gemini Advanced among the leaders. The catch? Accessing the most cutting-edge versions often comes with a hefty price.
But in the AI arms race, there’s one company that seems to be going in the opposite direction: Microsoft. While Microsoft Bing’s AI has been met with a mixed reception, it offers perhaps the most accessible way to experience GPT-4, the most advanced model to date. And now, things have gotten even more interesting.

Get GPT-4 Turbo for Free with Copilot
Microsoft just turned the game on its head. Copilot, a powerful AI-powered assistant by Microsoft, has unleashed its GPT-4 Turbo model for everyone. No more Pro subscription is needed. If you want to tap into that sweet, sweet AI power, simply fire up Copilot and set it to either Creative or Precise mode.
Essentially, all you need it a Microsoft Account, and for easy access, Install Microsoft Edge on your computer and that’s it!
“After quite some work, GPT4-Turbo replaced GPT-4 in the Copilot free tier. Pro users can still choose the older model, if preferred (there is a toggle).”

Is Something Even Bigger Coming?
This free-for-all Turbo rollout feels strategic, and it aligns with whispers of an impending GPT-4.5 Turbo from OpenAI. Microsoft might be making space for something even more powerful to take the reins, creating a trickle-down effect where the best tech eventually becomes accessible to more users.
This approach is a welcome breath of fresh air – paid subscribers get the bleeding edge tech, while free users gain amazing tools without any financial barrier.

Conclusion
We’re not just talking about chatbots anymore. AI is everywhere. Copilot writes code; OpenAI’s ChatGPT drafts essays and emails; even Elon Musk has open-sourced his own competitor to these giants, Grok.
But as these models get more sophisticated by the day, a looming question hangs over us all: Will increasingly advanced AI put countless professions at risk? Are we, perhaps, moving too quickly into uncharted territory?
