Microsoft has renamed Bing Chat, the AI-powered chatbot experience it launched on Bing earlier this year, to simply Copilot.

Just like how edge competes with chrome, I suppose.

Except MS has 70℅ of OpenAI shares. Sounds like MS being athlette - competing with itself lol. 😅

You’re right, that’s even dumber

49%, no?

Maybe something has changed. I’ve heard about 70% some time ago ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Common marketing strategy.

If you can pit your products against each other, it gives the illusion of choice. The many flavors of toothpaste for example, while being owned by one company.

My favorites are Google Maps and Waze, and PayPal and Venmo.
