Microsoft Delivering Copilot for everyone



 Official Microsoft Blog:

As we approach Super Bowl weekend, we’re thrilled to be a part of the festivities for the first time in four years. This year, we’re proud to celebrate the transformative power of AI and Microsoft Copilot, showcasing peoples’ “watch me” moments with Copilot enabling people to do things previously unattainable. With a simple sentence or two, you will see a budding entrepreneur turn a fledgling idea for a new product into an actionable business plan, a filmmaker’s concept into a rich set of storyboards, and a fantasy football player’s team come to life with a mascot image they can edit inline.

Coincident with the launch of our Super Bowl ad, we are also launching a significant new update to our Microsoft Copilot experience on copilot.microsoft.com and our Copilot app on iOS and Android app stores. Today when you visit Copilot, you will see a more streamlined look and feel designed to help you bring your ideas to life and more easily gain understanding about the world. We have introduced a cleaner, sleeker look and feel for answers and a fun new carousel of suggested prompts to showcase the power of Copilot.

Today marks exactly one year since our entry into AI-powered experiences for people with Bing Chat. In that year we have learned so many new things and seen the use of our Copilot experiences explode with over 5 billion chats and 5 billion images created to date which have led to sustained growth in Edge and Bing share. Now with Copilot as our singular experience for people looking to get more out of AI creation, we are today introducing further image creation capabilities.

With Designer in Copilot, you can go beyond just creating images to now customize your generated images with inline editing right inside Copilot1, keeping you in the flow of your chat. Whether you want to highlight an object to make it pop with enhanced color, blur the background of your image to make your subject shine, or even reimagine your image with a different effect like pixel art,2 Copilot has you covered, all for free. If you’re a Copilot Pro subscriber, in addition to the above, you can also now easily resize and regenerate images between square and landscape without leaving chat. Lastly, we will soon roll out our new Designer GPT inside Copilot, which offers an immersive, dedicated canvas inside of Copilot where you can visualize your ideas.


Copilot is free to use and works on Microsoft Edge, Chrome, Firefox and Safari. Or download the Copilot mobile app on iOS or Android.

AI is the defining technology of our time. Microsoft’s advancements in AI align with our company mission to empower every person and organization on the planet to achieve more. With Copilot, we’re democratizing our breakthroughs in AI to help make the promise of AI real for everyone.

@Fabler2


I understand that AI can do these things.
What I have a problem with is "where" this information lives, and "who" can see it..

Like some of the examples at around 3:50, show info that while not "mission critical", I would definitely not want to be in the hands of other people. Like a bunch of people's email addresses, etc.

We already have enough problems with certain data in the hands of other people. IMO, this is going to drastically add to that.

Just the art work for example. Let's say you're a small company with no artistic people, and you use AI to come up with your... logo. How many people, outside your small company, with much better resources, will have the opportunity to "grab" that logo you just created.

He mentions click-bait in the video. Well, this AI "could" be used, by nefarious parties, as uber-click bait.

The one remaining valuable thing about the human brain is that aside from truth serum or expert hypnotism, the things we think up ourselves, remain secret, until WE choose to release that information.

A really low grade example would be something like a really cool character name in an online video game.
If you use AI to think it up, you'll probably find that someone else (who has access to the server side of AI), will be able to "grab" that name, before you get the chance to.

Multiply that by a bazillion and folks like artists will have similar problems with art work that they use AI to create.



To summarize... my major concern is WHO has access to things I use AI for... on the "other" end.
These LLM AI critters, live on someone's computer, somewhere, that I will zero ability to control.

I mean I didn't hear TheoJoe asking ChatGpt how to protect or copy-write his material that was generated by the AI.
I'm not even sure you "could" copy-write something an AI created for you.

We complain about where all our Google search data goes, and who gets to use it. At present, AI looks to be an even more dangerous rabbit hole than Google search would be.





I still stand by my joke pic, (that I created without the help of AI)...
[all I did was add the little sign with the word Copilot, at the bottom]


Lemming - Copilot.png


And no, I don't care if anyone else uses the pic. If I did, I wouldn't post it on here. :-)





Short version: I think AI is just the next level of data mining.

I think the point of AI is that it's only a tool that aids with problem solving, can give suggestions better than a search engine, and has to be used with common sense obviously. As for your example of a small business with no artistic personnel they would use a professional company/person to create one so that they can trademark it I'm sure.

Creating images with AI isn't very good on average and is only a bit of fun really IMHO.
AI can give good suggestions in problem solving but ultimately it will be the user that will solve the problem pertaining to that particular issue not the AI. I think that was what TheoJoe was trying to put over.

There are many other things to consider concerning AI.
Folks may want to Google: The dark side of AI.

Most of the results are articles about how to improve AI.
But if one reads between the lines, there is some fairly scary stuff involved.

At present though, my major concern is privacy.
We can barely hang on to that as it is. AI is just going to make all that much harder.



Ya gotta ask yourself... WHY is Microsoft "giving" Copilot to Android and iOS.
What could possibly be their reasoning.

Nah, Google, Microsoft and Apple (and your ISP) have already destroyed any vestige of privacy you have online.

Nah, Google, Microsoft and Apple (and your ISP) have already destroyed any vestige of privacy you have online.

If there was nothing left... no one would spend all the time and effort to do it.



For example...

From the individual’s perspective, the detrimental effects of AI are mainly reflected in privacy concern, content recommendation and product recommendation in electronic markets. Firstly, AI has the ability to gain deep insights into consumers, which may exacerbate privacy concern (Grewal et al., 2021). For instance, Dickson (2019) argues that voice assistants (e.g., Alexa) can predict the moment the consumer’s current relationship will end by analyzing the consumer’s voice with AI technology. In addition, payments with facial recognition also introduce privacy risks since the human face carries a lot of personal information including the appearance, age, gender, etc. (Dibeklioğlu et al., 2015; Dantcheva & Brémond, 2016; Liu et al., 2021). A recent study states that personalized recommendations lead to perceived privacy concern and perceived information narrowing; as a result, people are reluctant to accept related technologies (Li et al., 2021).

This is getting beyond my knowledge of such things but couldn't hackers/criminals copy face/finger prints info, create false videos and photos etc. etc., with sophisticated software long before AI anyway? Is it a new problem? Maybe it's just that AI can make it a bit simpler for these hackers.
Who knows.
I'll agree to disagree with you @Ghot. AI is here to stay and can be a useful tool for us mortals and hopefully, like other things, it will be policed as best as possible. Just like everything else on the dangerous Internet. :wink:
