Microsoft has just announced a new version of the Bing search engine integrated on the Edge browser. The new Bing is integrated with an upgraded version of the AI technology that underpins the ChatGPT chatbot. Microsoft is rolling out the product alongside new AI-enhanced features for its Edge browser, promising that both will bring new experiences for faster, more accurate browsing and information search thanks to huge data warehouse.
What is the new Bing?
The “new Bing” works in a variety of configurations. One of these displays search results side-by-side with AI annotations, and the other allows users to talk to the Bing chatbot, using the same way as with the bot. ChatGPT.
In the feature rollout, Microosft tried: querying Bing for recipes, travel tips, and buying furniture. In one demo, Bing was asked to “create a schedule for each day of a five-day trip to Mexico City.” The question has been answered completely by the chatbot, describing a journey along with links to Website resources for your reference for more information.
ChatGPT only has data from 2021 and earlier, only Bing can retrieve news about recent events. The tool can also answer questions about its own launch, citing breaking news from the past day.
Microsoft says Bing’s Chatbot AI uses an upgraded version of GPT 3.5, an OpenAI AI language model that supports ChatGPT. Microsoft calls this the “Prometheus Model” and says it’s more powerful than GPT 3.5 and better able to answer search queries with up-to-date information and annotated answers.
