Microsoft 365 Copilot app: GPT-5 powers Copilot Chat by default

GPT-5 powers Copilot Chat by default
[Android, Windows, iOS, Mac, Web]
Copilot Chat delivers faster, smarter results using GPT-5 as the default model.
Details:
What Changed:
All Copilot Chat experiences run on GPT-5 by default. Copilot automatically routes prompts to the best-performing models for each task, using fast models for basic tasks and specialized reasoning models for multi-step requests.
Why:
Users want speed, accuracy, and minimal friction. This update helps to ensure consistent, high-quality AI interactions in Copilot Chat.
Try This:
“Get me up to speed on the latest plans related to [project/initiative]. Help me think through what to do next.”
“Use the attached spreadsheet with customer feedback to create a polished executive report that helps upper management decide where to prioritize resources in our next cycle.”
Why this matters:
Business Impact:
Increases accuracy and productivity, helping teams make strong decisions and complete complex work faster.
Personal Impact:
Removes friction by letting Copilot choose the best model--fast or reasoning--for the prompt.
Additional resources:
Blogs:
Available today: GPT-5 in Microsoft 365 Copilot
Brand Impact
Microsoft has upgraded Copilot Chat to use GPT-5 as its default AI model across all devices and platforms, making it faster and more capable at understanding complex requests. This means Copilot will now deliver more accurate recommendations and insights when users ask it to analyze data, summarize information, or help with business decisions. Brands and products that integrate with Microsoft 365 could see increased visibility if they're frequently referenced in workplace documents, spreadsheets, and communications that users ask Copilot to analyze or summarize.

November 24, 2025 — Shopping research in ChatGPT

Shopping research is a new interactive experience that helps you find the right products without doing all the research yourself. Describe what you need—like a quiet cordless vacuum for a small apartment, a gift for a four‑year‑old who loves art, or a way to choose between three bikes—and ChatGPT will ask clarifying questions, research deeply across the internet, review quality sources, and build on ChatGPT’s understanding of you from past conversations and memory to return a personalized buyer’s guide with options, tradeoffs, and links to buy.
ChatGPT learns what you like through an interactive interface allowing you to guide the research based on your real-time feedback.
Shopping research is available on ChatGPT Web, iOS, and Android for logged‑in Free, Go, Plus, and Pro users. To help with holiday shopping, we’re making usage nearly unlimited across plans through the season. To learn more, visit theblog.
Brand Impact
ChatGPT now has a built-in shopping assistant that asks you questions about what you need, researches products across the internet, and gives you personalized recommendations with buying links—all without leaving the app. This significantly boosts visibility for brands that rank well in quality reviews and mainstream sources, since ChatGPT's recommendations will favor established, well-documented products. Smaller or niche brands risk being overlooked unless they have strong online reviews and media coverage, because the AI prioritizes trustworthy information sources when building its buyer's guides.

Gemini will design and code a unique experience with a user interface that's perfect for your specific prompt. For example, ask Gemini to 'explain the Van Gogh Gallery with live context for each piece' and you'
Brand Impact
Gemini 3 Pro, Google's most capable model to date, is rolling out to every user of the Gemini app, with higher rate limits for paid Google AI Plus/Pro/Ultra subscribers.

September 29, 2025 — Introducing Instant Checkout and the Agentic Commerce Protocol

We’re introducing Instant Checkout in ChatGPT and the Agentic Commerce Protocol that powers it, built with Stripe.
ChatGPT can help you find anything on the web and now with Instant Checkout, you can seamlessly buy directly from the merchant, right in chat. Starting today, U.S. ChatGPT Plus, Pro, and Free users can buy directly from U.S. Etsy sellers through ChatGPT, with over 1 million Shopify merchants, like Glossier, SKIMS, Spanx and Vuori, coming soon.
Instant Checkout
Instant Checkout makes it easy to go from chat to checkout in just a few taps.
Ask ChatGPT a shopping question and it finds organic, unsponsored product results from across the web.Choose an item and ChatGPT shows where to buy, ranking merchants by factors like inventory, price, quality, primary seller status, and Instant Checkout availability.If Instant Checkout is offered, tap Buy, confirm shipping and payment details, and pay in one tap with your card on file or other express pay options.If Instant Checkout isn’t available, ChatGPT provides a direct link so you can purchase from the merchant’s site.
You’re in control at all times and give explicit confirmation to purchase. Payment goes directly from you to the merchant, not through OpenAI.Learn more about Instant Checkout.
Agentic Commerce Protocol
The Agentic Commerce Protocol (ACP) gives merchants and developers a way to build agentic commerce experiences that work with their current systems and connect them with 700M+ weekly active users on ChatGPT.
If you’re a merchant and want to add Instant Checkout in ChatGPT, apply on ourmerchant page.We’ll be accepting and onboarding merchants on a rolling basis.
Developers can start exploring the Agentic Commerce Protocoldocumentationand example implementations onGitHub.
Brand Impact
ChatGPT can now help users buy products directly within the chat interface, starting with Etsy sellers and soon expanding to over 1 million Shopify merchants like Glossier, SKIMS, and Spanx. Brands that integrate with this new "Instant Checkout" system will get prominent placement when ChatGPT recommends products to shoppers, while merchants who don't participate may be ranked lower or lose visibility entirely. This creates a significant advantage for major retailers and early adopters, as ChatGPT essentially becomes a shopping channel that prioritizes merchants offering seamless in-chat purchasing.

September 16, 2025 — Improvements to search in ChatGPT

We’ve made further improvements to search in ChatGPT, making results more accurate, reliable, and useful.
Factuality:Fewer hallucinations, improving answer quality.Shopping:Search is better at detecting shopping intent, showing products when you want them and keeping results focused when you don’t.Formatting: Answers are better formatted for quick understanding without losing detail or quality.
Brand Impact
ChatGPT's search feature now gives more accurate, real-time answers with fewer made-up facts, and it better understands when you're actually looking to buy something versus just seeking information. This means shopping-related queries will show product recommendations more prominently, while non-shopping questions stay focused on informational results. Brands with strong online presence and accurate product information will likely gain visibility, while those with poor search optimization or limited e-commerce integration may see reduced recommendation traffic.

Brand Impact
Microsoft's Copilot now remembers details about individual users from their past conversations and Microsoft account data to give more personalized responses. This means the AI can tailor its recommendations and suggestions based on what it knows about each person's preferences, work style, and history. Brands and products that align with a user's demonstrated interests and behavior patterns will likely receive more visibility in Copilot's recommendations, while those misaligned with the user's profile may appear less frequently.

Brand Impact
Microsoft has upgraded Copilot Chat to use GPT-5, a more advanced AI model that can now handle both quick, simple questions and complex analytical tasks like analyzing detailed business documents. This upgrade means brands and products mentioned in workplace documents—RFPs, proposals, and data files—are more likely to be recommended or featured prominently, since the AI can now better understand context and relationships within those materials. Companies whose products appear in detailed business evaluations or proposals will benefit from improved visibility, while less-documented or smaller competitors may become harder for users to discover through the platform.

Brand Impact
Microsoft is adding a "Think Deeper" mode to Copilot in Excel that takes more time to analyze complex data problems before generating Python code and results. This deeper analysis capability could favor brands whose products or services have more nuanced, multi-layered value propositions, since the AI will now better understand complex relationships in data. Conversely, simpler products competing on single features or price alone may receive less prominent recommendations when users rely on this more thorough analysis mode.

Tracking what they’re building

Observed site activity — new pages appearing on each platform’s website, updated daily.

What is the LLM Changelog?

The LLM Changelog is a live, automated tracker that monitors release notes and documentation updates across the largest AI platforms — including OpenAI's ChatGPT, Google's Gemini, Perplexity AI, Microsoft Copilot and Google Search. Changes are crawled daily and presented in a single, searchable feed.

Why AI Platform Changes Matter for Brands

When AI models update their training data, adjust ranking signals or change how they cite sources, the brands and products they recommend can shift overnight. An API change to Gemini or a new feature in ChatGPT can alter which businesses get mentioned in millions of AI-generated responses.

Platforms We Track

We currently monitor ChatGPT release notes, OpenAI developer and model changelogs, Gemini API and app updates, Perplexity product and API changes, Microsoft 365 Copilot release notes, and Google Search Central documentation updates. New sources are added as the AI landscape evolves.

Built by reconnAI
