In January, Microsoft announced plans to introduce Copilot GPT to its Copilot-generated AI assistant. These are designed as specialized AI chatbots created to accept questions about specific topics or tasks. Now, it looks like some of these Copilot GPTs are finally starting to be made available to the public.
Jordi Ribas, Corporate Vice President at Microsoft and Head of Engineering and Product for Copilot and Bing, posted about the new availability of Copilot GPT. His X (formerly Twitter) account.

The four Copilot ChatGPT chatbots are labeled Designer, Vacation Planner, Cooking Assistant, and Fitness Trainer, and they all seem self-explanatory. Copilot users can click on any of the four Copilot GPTs to ask questions about those topics. You’ll get more specific answers than just using the usual Copilot chatbot.
The example shown in Ribas’s X post shows fitness trainer Copilot GPT in action and provides detailed answers to questions about how to properly cool down after a workout. Ribas says these his Copilot GPTs “leverage contextual instructions within the prompt and domain information as part of the grounding (RAG) data.”
Microsoft also announced in January that it plans to release a new app called Copilot GPT Builder. This will allow those who have paid a Copilot Pro subscription ($20/month) to create their own Copilot GPT. As of now, there is no word on when the GPT app maker will be released.
