Microsoft Mocked for Terms of Service That Admit Copilot Is for “Entertainment Purposes Only”

Microsoft is drawing criticism after Copilot’s terms of service said the chatbot is for entertainment only and shouldn’t be relied on for important advice.

The wording clashes with Microsoft’s push to embed Copilot across Windows apps and productivity tools.

Microsoft told PCMag the language is legacy text from Copilot’s early Bing days and will be updated.

The episode highlights a broader AI industry problem: aggressive rollout of chatbots alongside tight limits on liability for mistakes or hallucinations.
