Microsoft has officially integrated OpenAI’s cutting-edge GPT-5 into a range of its platforms, enhancing both enterprise and consumer products with advanced AI-driven reasoning capabilities. This marks a significant leap forward, bringing more efficient coding, smarter responses, and better task management to users, whether they are tackling daily queries or complex business problems.
Microsoft 365 Copilot and Copilot studio integrated GPT-5
Starting today, Microsoft 365 Copilot users will benefit from GPT-5’s enhanced ability to process complex questions, track long conversations, and deeply understand user context. This upgrade allows Copilot to handle more sophisticated tasks, from answering emails to processing documents and files, making enterprise users more productive. Additionally, GPT-5 will be incorporated into Microsoft Copilot Studio, enabling users to build custom agents that can address more intricate business processes.
The integration of GPT-5 into Microsoft Copilot aims to improve the daily user experience by offering smarter, faster solutions to everyday problems. Free access to GPT-5 through Microsoft Copilot is available on various platforms, including Windows, Mac, Android, and iOS, allowing users to explore the model’s capabilities in various scenarios.
GitHub Copilot and Azure AI Foundry open new possibilities for developers
For developers, GPT-5 will be available in all paid GitHub Copilot plans. GitHub users can now write, test, and deploy code more efficiently using GPT-5, which excels at handling complex, long-running coding tasks. The addition of GPT-5 to Visual Studio Code and GitHub Copilot Chat streamlines workflows, especially for developers working with agents, without leaving their code editors.
Azure AI Foundry also brings GPT-5’s capabilities to developers using its model router, which optimizes the selection of models based on the task’s complexity and performance needs. By leveraging GPT-5 within Azure, developers gain access to powerful tools for building sophisticated AI applications with trusted security and compliance features.
In a demonstration of Microsoft’s commitment to security, the Microsoft AI Red Team rigorously tested GPT-5’s reasoning model, ensuring one of the strongest AI safety profiles seen in OpenAI models. With these enhancements, Microsoft continues to strengthen its leadership in AI, providing users with powerful new tools to improve both business and creative tasks.
