Compare ChatGPT and Microsoft Copilot by applying identical prompts in various scenarios to uncover their distinct capabilities. Understand how Copilot's integration within Microsoft apps differentiates it from ChatGPT's general chat interface.
Key Insights
- Test ChatGPT and Microsoft Copilot by using identical prompts across tasks such as writing, image generation, and Excel file manipulation to observe their distinct responses and functionalities.
- Understand that Microsoft Copilot's primary advantage is its seamless integration within specific Microsoft applications like Excel, Word, Outlook, and PowerPoint, enabling direct in-app assistance and task-specific productivity.
- Document findings and practical comparisons through summaries, reports, blog articles, and social media posts, highlighting the scenarios in which ChatGPT or Copilot proved more effective.

Your next challenge is to explore the differences between ChatGPT and Microsoft Copilot to get to know them better, to see when you might want to use one versus the other. So, I want you to do the same exact task, put in the same exact prompts into both ChatGPT and Microsoft Copilot. See how different they are in their responses.
Try this for different types of things, for writing, for example, image generation when working with Excel files. Now, if you're doing the same kind of prompt, you're doing the same kind of task, there is a difference with Copilot because you can do that in the app itself versus just doing it in the chat. And you're going to see a very big difference of the integration of doing it in Excel or doing something in Microsoft Word versus doing it just in the chat.
So, while you're trying to do it, try to replicate doing the exact same thing, but keep in mind that Copilot can do it differently because you're not just limited to the chat. You can also do it in the exact app itself. So, you can be in Outlook writing an email or having analyzed something.
You can be in Excel. You can be in PowerPoint and see the differences of what it can do, especially it's that integration that really is the difference between Copilot and ChatGPT. But even if you're using the Copilot chat, just because Copilot is based on ChatGPT doesn't mean it responds exactly the same way.
So, see how they might respond differently. Keeping in mind that, of course, every time you do the same prompt, even in ChatGPT, you're going to get different responses, but explore this. Try things out and see how they are different for generating ideas, for doing research, and take the differences that you're noticing and seeing kind of when one works better than the other for doing certain things.
