Not exactly, ChatGPT is OpenAI's GPT interface. Whereas CoPilot is Microsoft's, and has a bunch of plugins and tweaks to suit their uses. The underlying model is the same, but not the customisation.

Think of it like different flavours of Android. Samsung, Google, and Nothing all have their own spins, even if they all run Android under the hood.

Also ChatGPT 4 is paid but Copilot is free

For 30 usages though. Good backup if ChatGPT fails to give you a good answer.

Unclear, as I don't work for Microsoft. But searching Bing isn't part of the default GPT function set, that's at least one proprietary one that they've specifically done up for their own uses.
