It is semi-soldered to drill because of missuse. Bit probably were stuck in object while drill head still tried to spin it.

You will need to pull and easy hit bit from all sides, if it breaks just make sure it breaks so that it still sticks out.

And unscrew the head completely to give it room.

How does one do that?

If the chuck can open freely, then this is probably the solution. However, if the chuck is binding around the bit and can't open to give the bit room to release, doing this will just break the bit.
