it isn't - they claim their Ultra model is better than GPT-4 and they're offering 2 months to try it out for free, then pay the same as GPT-4. It makes all competitive sense.
btw, what you get with the bing version of gpt is quite different from the chat or API, so I wouldn't consider them equivalent or even interchangeable.
I'm not sure you're correct on the last point. My understanding is copilot gets chatgpt 4 turbo which is the paid version, as well as other parts like dall-e 3 so for free it's definitely the best option....
And fair enough on the google stuff being free for at least 2 months. That makes more economic sense.
It's a different product though. You may probably access to GPT-4 in some chatbots in the wild too, but getting around their prompt and original directives to make them behave closer to the chatty product openai offers might be counterproductive. You may be better off using Chat GPT 3.5 for free.
