What is co -pilot?
Microsoft Copilot is an assistant to the integrated in Microsoft 365 applications such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and equipment.
Pyling large language models such as GPT-4O, allow Copilot to write documents, analyze data, create presentations and administer emails and meetings. With this update, Copilot can now also create text -based images.
What can I do with the generation of Copilot’s images?
The integration of the last model of OpenAi, GPT-4O, allows Copilot to generate high quality photoretic images based on textual descriptions, largely expanding what users can do with visual content. Users can create personalized graphics, illustrations and designs without the need for external design tools. Users can also modify existing images, apply stylistic transformations and produce readable text within the images.
Initially, Microsoft begged these GPT-4O image generation tools for business users through Microsoft 365 Copilot last month. Now, the same capabilities are reaching the general public through the consumption version of Microsoft Cocilot.

This movement places Microsoft Copilot ahead of its other creative tools such as Microsoft Designer and Image Creator, both or that still depend on older Dall-E models in Openai. On the contrary, GPT-4O represses the avant-garde in images generated by AI, with faster response times and more refined outputs.
With thesis improvements, Microsoft presses to place Copilot as an integral assistant of AI who can compete against larger players, Openi and Google Gemini.
