Microsoft Embeds OpenAI’s GPT-5 Deeply Across Its Platforms
Unleashing Smarter AI Everywhere
As of August 7, 2025, Microsoft has integrated GPT‑5, OpenAI’s most advanced reasoning model to date—trained entirely on Azure—into a wide array of its consumer, developer, and enterprise tools Source. With the launch, users gain access to a suite of upgraded AI capabilities without needing to choose which model best suits their task—the system dynamically routes requests to the optimal AI variant, balancing power, speed, and efficiency.
Productivity Elevated: Microsoft 365 Copilot Gets Smarter
In Microsoft 365 Copilot, GPT‑5 moves reasoning through complex tasks, maintaining context in lengthy conversations and understanding users’ needs with greater clarity. This empowers enterprise users to process and analyze emails, documents, and data more effectively—boosting productivity in daily workflows.
Smarter Everyday AI: Microsoft Copilot
GPT‑5 is now available in Microsoft Copilot, the AI assistant designed for casual use—whether answering tough questions, enhancing writing, or sparking visual creativity. The new Smart mode delivers more refined responses, and users can try it for free via the Copilot web app or on Windows, macOS, Android, and iOS.
Developers Power Through with GPT-5
For developers, the integration extends to GitHub Copilot (across all paid plans), GitHub Copilot Chat, Visual Studio Code, and GitHub Mobile. GPT‑5 enhances coding workflows—helping write, test, and deploy code more seamlessly and even manage long-running agentic tasks end-to-end.
Additionally, Azure AI Foundry now offers GPT‑5 models complete with enterprise-grade security, compliance, and privacy. Its built-in model router intelligently selects the best model for each task, optimizing for complexity, performance, and cost-efficiency.
Safety First: Rigorous Testing, Robust Security
Microsoft’s AI Red Team rigorously tested GPT‑5 to anticipate and mitigate potential threats. The model demonstrated one of the strongest AI safety profiles yet, effectively guarding against misuse like malware creation, scam automation, and other forms of abuse.
Bottom Line: Instant Access, Powerful Results
Starting immediately, GPT‑5 is available to users across consumer, enterprise, and developer platforms—offering boosted intelligence, refined reasoning, and smarter task handling right out of the box.
