Microsoft and Cognizant have announced a new partnership that will include Cognizant buying 25,000 Microsoft 365 Copilot seats to help expand the use of generative AI in the enterprise space.
Less than one year after launching its AI coding assistant, Google has announced that it’s changing its name from Studio Bot to Gemini in Android Studio just to make sure you know that yes, it uses AI, too. Google also announced that the tool will run on the company’s Gemini Pro 1.0 model, which should help it provide faster and more accurate answers to coding questions. Gemini in Android Studio isn’t the only AI coding assistant out there, with both Amazon and the Microsoft-owned GitHub offering similar tools as well.
Microsoft-owned GitHub is launching its Copilot Enterprise subscription today, designed to allow developers to work with businesses’ own internal code. The $39 per person per month subscription includes an AI chat interface, code completion, smart actions, and integration with GitHub. Microsoft’s Bing search engine will also provide the web search for queries that go beyond a company’s own data.
