Microsoft has faced criticism after a clause in its terms of service for Copilot, an AI-powered tool, reveals that it was marketed as indispensable but is actually only for entertainment purposes. The company spent billions on developing Copilot and has been promoting it as a productivity multiplier, but the fine print warns users not to rely on it for important advice. Adoption figures show that fewer than one in 30 eligible users pay for the tool, highlighting the gap between marketing and reality. Microsoft’s CEO Satya Nadella is rebranding his AI strategy, investing heavily in its own models to reduce dependency on OpenAI’s technology. The move comes as competitors like ChatGPT continue to gain traction, leaving Microsoft to close the gap between its marketing claims and actual performance.
