Copilot has proven to be a worthy ChatGPT competitor,boasting the same features as OpenAI's chatbot with extra perks,including GPT-4,internet access, andfootnotes. As a result, working professionals and students can greatly benefit from using the chatbot, and this update makes it possible for them to do it safely. 

On Tuesday, Microsoft announced its "next wave of commercial data protection availability," allowing more users with eligible work or student Entra ID accounts to access commercial data protection in Copilot just by signing in at no additional cost.

Microsoft's commercial data protection addresses major confidentiality issues with using generative AI chatbots, ensuring that prompts and responses are not saved, that the data is not used to train the underlying models, and Microsoft has no eyes-on access to user or chat data, according to the release. 

Users will know that the data protection is on because there will be a "Protected" badge next to the user's profile icon, and there is the text that reads "Your personal and company data are protected" above the text box.

Users will also be able to enjoy the additional protection on mobile in the Copilot app, on all major web browsers, in the sidebar using Copilot in Microsoft Edge, and via their computer's taskbar in Windows.
