’s Copilot AI, there could be no escaping it soon as it has recently been spotted crawling around messaging apps, specifically Telegram.

seems to have sneakily introduced Copilot into the messaging app, allowing Telegram users to experience it firsthand. 

According to

dubbed ‘copilot-for-social’, which is an initiative to bring generative AI to social media apps. The Copilot **** seems to currently work in Telegram in the US and *** (and possibly other regions). It’s available for free, although it requires your phone number to work.

You can find the **** by typing in ‘@CopilotOfficialBot’ into Telegram’s search bar, whereupon a new message thread will open and Copilot will give you the rundown of everything it can do. Keep in mind that there is a query limit of 30 questions a day, but given that you don’t need to create a separate account and it’s all completely free, that’s not a bad setup. 

Copilot appears to work similarly to how you use it on a PC. The AI can also be used on the desktop, phone and web versions of Telegram. 

Great, I hate it 

From what we understand the reason why you need to verify your phone number to enable Copilot in Telegram is to stop people within the EU from gaining access (likely due to data regulations and stricter laws in that region). We’re sure in time that EU users will have the chance to try it out, but as of now, they’re going to have to wait.

Copilot may be exciting news to some, but others may not like the idea of an AI having access to their messaging app (there could be trust issues for some Telegram users, we’d imagine). Furthermore, this does give me flashbacks to Snapchat’s AI chatbot, a rather bizarre affair that ***** as quickly as it popped up.

It seems like generative AI chatbots are becoming ******* and ******* to escape, as Telegram surely will not be the end of Copilot’s mobile integration plans.

could also push for integration with WhatsApp, Messenger and more, which I would find unbearable frankly.

Hopefully,

will stick with the non-invasive setup that Copilot seems to have in Telegram, where you must actively seek it out, rather than having the AI shoved into your messages by default somehow.
