ChatGPT’s Windows app beats Microsoft Copilot for productivity – Computerworld

• Copilot will let you start a new conversation, if you like — but that’s it.
• ChatGPT lets you start new chats, and it also lets you switch to recent chats you’ve used right from its sidebar.

Some features are similar. Both Copilot and ChatGPT can search the web for you to find up-to-date information. Neither can search the web while you’ve having a voice conversation, however — hopefully that’ll arrive in the future.

Both ChatGPT and Copilot offer different answers, too. You should experiment with both to see which best fits your needs. However, in my testing, I found that ChatGPT was more verbose in its responses — in a good way. Since the update where Copilot started trying to be your best friend, Copilot has been giving shorter responses with a focus on follow-up questions for you, to keep the conversation going.

Copilot Pro still beats ChatGPT for Office integration

For all of ChatGPT’s advantages, Copilot does still have one trick up its sleeve: If you pay for a $20 per month Copilot Pro subscription, you get access to Copilot AI integration in Microsoft Office apps like Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook.
