Microsoft’s terms of use for Copilot say the AI tool is “for entertainment purposes only” and should not be trusted for important advice. That language has drawn attention because Microsoft is also pushing Copilot as a serious product for business customers. After the wording spread online, Microsoft said it came from older terms and no longer reflects how Copilot is used today. The company said it plans to update the language in its next revision. The article also notes that Microsoft is not alone. Other AI companies, including OpenAI and xAI, also warn users not to treat chatbot answers as fully reliable or as a final source of truth.

Microsoft AI has released three new foundation models that can handle text, voice, and images, showing the company wants to build more of its own AI technology instead of relying only on OpenAI. The new models include one for speech transcription, one for voice generation, and one for image generation. Microsoft says they are built for real-world use and priced to compete with tools from Google and OpenAI. The models were developed by Microsoft’s MAI Superintelligence team, led by Mustafa Suleyman. Even with this launch, Microsoft says it still plans to keep working closely with OpenAI while also expanding its own AI products and research.

Microsoft is expanding access to Copilot Cowork through its Frontier program, giving more businesses an early look at the AI tool. Copilot Cowork is designed to help teams automate work by planning tasks, using company files and tools, and showing progress along the way. Microsoft says it can handle both simple jobs and repeat tasks like monthly reviews. The system also includes built-in skills for things like calendar management and daily task updates. Early users say it helps turn AI from a tool that only gives answers into one that can actually take action. The wider release is part of Microsoft’s push to grow Copilot adoption.
