Microsoft’s Bing search and Edge browser integrated with ChatGPT officially released
I never thought that the brand that started the latest search revolution would be Bing.
Even though Google is trying its best to respond quickly to save itself from news about AI technology – after all, it is still being tested internally. Google Bard, not only is it late to retrieve information, it is also limited to ChatGPT in 2021. Now Microsoft is even allowed to take advantage of this wave of enthusiasm and completely revamp the homepage of its own search engine, announcing that it will integrate OpenAI’s language model technology.

“Ask me any questions…” This is the latest functional experience of Microsoft’s new generation Bing search function and Edge browser, which has become the most popular language model robot occupying the most “cutting-edge” topics at this stage. You can enter a question of up to 1,000 words to ask this search engine, which incorporates OpenAI ChatGPT chatbot technology to provide a natural Q&A search experience.
As for the previously revealed “chat” function, it allows Bing users to directly use the current chat window function of ChatGPT. Enjoy the same continuous Q&A method as chatting with Bing – but at this stage, you need to log in to your Microsoft account on the web to queue up and join the waiting list (you still remember your account and password, right?).

However, currently, for the Prometheus language model technology that is truly integrated into ChatGPT, or even the Prometheus language model technology that will be upgraded in subsequent announcements, you still need to wait in line for preview before you can actually have it. So it currently looks like a revised screen. Even if you can enter preset questions to try, the rest basically only allows you to see traditional web search results (if you want to play chat, you may have to continue playing with ChatGPT, which is prone to crashing).
Microsoft’s current introduction to the new generation of Bing is that it will allow you to ask complex questions like a conversation with a research assistant, personal planner, and creative partner, and even assist in writing commands, stories, and sharing project ideas and other extended uses. As for a more in-depth “chat” experience, you can ask follow-up questions. For example: “Can you explain in simpler terms?” or “Provide more options.”

The search experience of the new version of Bing is based on the actual use at this stage. I feel that even if it is set to Traditional Chinese, Bing will still feed me a lot of Simplified Chinese results – this is a bit puzzling. After all, if ChatGPT had mentioned helping me translate into Traditional Chinese, this situation would be less likely to happen.
As for the searched content, Microsoft’s new Bing response seems to have a historical time limit during the integration process (could it be affected by ChatGPT’s current 2021 time limit?); foreign media have shown that they will respond to new information – questions such as “What did Microsoft announce today?” can get answers.

In addition, the Edge browser will also provide a helper function that can help you enter text – related functional improvements canRefer to the official blog. This kind of experience can also be used in the latest preview version of Edge:

That is to say, Microsoft did not shy away from mentioning in the Q&A that this system is a function of OpenAI cooperation – but it was emphasized that it was developed according to Microsoft’s AI principles. “Bing works hard to avoid sharing unintended offensive content in search results and takes steps to prevent its chat features from covering potentially harmful topics, but you may still see unexpected results. We are continually working to improve our technology to prevent harmful content.”
In short, this is a problem that may occur with ChatGPT, and it is very likely that Bing will also occur at this stage. It was also mentioned that suggestions can be expressed through the reporting function.

Now it seems that the Microsoft version of ChatGPT still feels like it just changes the interface. I am a little worried that this wave of search engine revolution may still be missing a little spark… I can only say that Microsoft really needs to take advantage of this wave and everyone will try Bing.
Okay, let’s look forward to Google’s announcement tonight to give us a different user experience – there should be something new, right? After all, with so many AI-connected services… at least we can expect that Bard will feed us “fresh” results from Google searches (should).
