On June 2, 2026, at its Build developer conference, Microsoft announced a family of seven in-house AI models under the MAI brand, the most concrete step yet in the company’s plan to stop being just the best distributor of someone else’s frontier models. The lineup spans reasoning, coding, image generation, voice, and transcription, and it was unveiled during CEO Satya Nadella’s keynote alongside new agents, silicon, and a repositioning of Windows itself. The centerpiece is MAI-Thinking-1, Microsoft’s first reasoning model. It is a 35 billion active parameter Mixture of Experts model that Microsoft says matches Claude Opus 4.6 on SWE-Bench Pro and narrowly beat Claude Sonnet 4.6 in blind human […]

If you are a student or teacher hoping to get Copilot free in 2026, the rules changed sharply this spring. GitHub paused new sign-ups for its free Copilot Student plan on April 20, 2026, with no reopening date announced. Verified students who activated Copilot before the pause keep free access under the new GitHub Copilot Student plan, live since March 12, 2026. On that plan, GPT-5.4, GPT-5.3-Codex, and Claude Opus and Sonnet are no longer pickable by hand. On the Microsoft side, eligible college students can still get Microsoft 365 Premium free for 12 months (then $19.99/month), and Copilot Chat is free with a school account on Microsoft 365 A1, […]

Microsoft Word now comes with Microsoft Copilot built in, an AI assistant that can draft documents, rewrite paragraphs, and summarize reports. The catch? Copilot Pro costs $20/month on top of your existing Microsoft 365 subscription, and the free tier barely scratches the surface. For most people, that is a lot to pay for features you can get elsewhere at half the price. The best AI tool to pair with Word right now is Fello AI. It creates fully formatted .docx, .xlsx, .pptx, and .pdf files directly from a chat conversation, gives you access to GPT-5.4, Claude, and Gemini in one app, and works on Mac, iPhone, and iPad. You skip […]

78% of organizations worldwide were using AI in their workflows as of 2024, according to McKinsey’s Global AI Survey,, and Excel remains the most widely used data tool in business. Yet most people still build spreadsheets the hard way, manually typing formulas, cleaning data by hand, and formatting cells one by one. Microsoft’s built-in Copilot can help, but it costs $20/month on top of your Microsoft 365 subscription, and while it can now create basic spreadsheets with Edit with Copilot, it works best when editing existing files. The best way to use AI with Excel in 2026 is Fello AI. It generates complete, downloadable .xlsx files with working formulas, formatted […]

More and more people are asking the same question – what actually is the best AI chatbot? With new AI models launching constantly and each company claiming theirs is the breakthrough everyone’s been waiting for, getting a straight answer feels harder and harder. Most “best of” lists online are either outdated, biased, or based on someone’s personal opinion rather than actual data. But we might finally have a clear answer. A recent study by Onelittleweb analyzed over 10,500 AI tools and nearly 100 billion web visits to figure out which chatbots are actually winning. Instead of relying on marketing claims or gut feelings, the study focused on real metrics – […]
