From ComputerWorld: In what could be a trial run for the US and European markets, Microsoft’s Copilot AI assistant is now included in M365 Personal and Family subscriptions in several countries, including Australia, Malaysia, and New Zealand.
Microsoft is bundling its Copilot generative AI (genAI) assistant with consumer Microsoft 365 subscriptions in several countries, the company announced last week.
Copilot Pro will be included in Microsoft 365 Personal and Family subscriptions in Australia, Malaysia, New Zealand, Singapore, Taiwan, and Thailand, the company said in a statement first spotted by ZDNet. It means users will gain access to Copilot features in apps such as Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. Designer — Microsoft’s text-to-image app — is also included.
Microsoft will also increase the cost of the subscription — prices will vary in each country — though this will be less than the cost of a separate Copilot Pro subscription. Australian customers, for example, will pay an additional $4 AUD a month for M365 Family subscriptions, and an extra $5 AUD for M365 Personal subscriptions, according to The Verge. In comparison, Copilot Pro costs $33 AUD per user each month.
