What is Bing?

Bing is Microsoft's search engine that competes with Google and other search engines. However, unlike other search engines, Bing is not just a tool to find websites. Bing is a tool that helps you find answers, create content, and complete tasks. It is powered by AI, which means it can understand natural language, synthesize information from multiple sources, generate content on demand, and chat with you interactively.

Bing utilizes advanced AI technology such as OpenAI's GPT-4 language model, which can produce human-like text on any topic. It also leverages Microsoft's extensive search index, containing billions of web pages and documents that are constantly updated. By combining these two sources of knowledge, Bing delivers the best possible results for your queries.

New AI Features of Bing

Voice Chat

One of the new features of Bing is Voice Chat. Now, you can talk to Bing using your voice instead of typing your query. This feature offers convenience, speed, and accessibility. To use Voice Chat, simply click on the microphone icon on the top right corner of the Edge browser. A chat window will open where you can see your voice input and Bing's response. If you prefer typing, you can also type your query.

Voice Chat utilizes speech recognition technology to convert your voice into text. It then uses natural language processing technology to understand your query and generate a response. The response is converted back into speech using text-to-speech technology and played back to you. Voice Chat allows you to ask complex questions that require summarizing information from multiple sources. For example, you can ask Bing about the benefits and drawbacks of nuclear fusion as an energy source or the history and culture of Hawaii.

Chat History

Another new feature is Chat History, which lets you access your previous chats with Bing on the Edge browser and resume them anytime. You can find this feature by clicking the chat icon on the top right corner of your screen. Chat History uses cloud storage to keep your Bing chats and sync them across your devices. This allows you to continue a chat anytime, anywhere, whether you're planning a trip or researching a product. It also helps you stay organized by keeping track of things like bookings, receipts, and reminders from Bing. Overall, this feature improves your productivity and keeps your chats relevant.

Images in Chat Answer

Bing now allows you to see pictures in your chat with the Images in Chat Answer feature. This feature makes things clearer, more fun, and engaging. When you ask Bing a question that requires images, Bing will automatically show related pictures along with a brief description. It uses image recognition to find pictures from the web or Bing's image database. The pictures help you understand the topic better, whether it's pictures of cute animals, famous places, or historical events. You can even ask Bing to create pictures like memes, cartoons, logos, or collages based on your description. In short, Images in Chat Answer lets you see and make pictures in your chat, enhancing your overall experience.

Knowledge Cards

Bing introduces Knowledge Cards, which provide quick information on different topics in a card-like format with additional details and actions. This feature is great for simplicity, comprehensiveness, and interactivity. When you ask Bing a question involving a specific topic or entity, Bing automatically shows you a Knowledge Card that summarizes the most relevant information about that topic or entity. The card includes links, images, videos, and actions. Knowledge Cards utilize Knowledge Graph technology to extract and organize information from various sources. They allow you to get concise information on various topics or entities without having to browse through multiple websites or pages. For example, you can get information about Microsoft, Barack Obama, Titanic, or the Eiffel Tower. Knowledge Cards also provide additional resources and options to explore more about the topic or entity, such as downloading software, buying devices, or contacting support.

Optimized Answers for Certain Topics

Bing now offers optimized answers for certain topics such as travel, health, and entertainment. When you ask Bing a question about a popular topic, it provides specific answers that fit your question and context really well. Bing achieves this by using language models and the search index. Language models help Bing talk like a human and ensure the answer is right for your question, while the search index helps Bing find the newest and most relevant information from the internet. For example, you could ask Bing about the best way to lose weight or good movies to watch on Netflix. Optimized answers also allow you to find out more about the topic by clicking on the tabs under the answer. For instance, if you ask something about earthquakes, you can see more info like data graphs, maps, and news about it in your country.

Improved Copy Paste Support

Bing introduces improved copy paste support, which enhances the functionality of copying from Bing to other applications or websites with proper formatting, citations, and links. Now, you can easily copy text or images from Bing and paste them somewhere else. Bing ensures that the copied content looks good and includes any needed references. This feature works for any text or image, such as poems, answers, or pictures, and you can paste them in documents, emails, presentations, or social posts. If you want to go back to the original source, simply click on the reference. Improved copy paste support makes copying from Bing easier, better, and more reliable.

Conclusion

Bing is a powerful AI-driven search engine that can help you with anything you need on the web. Its new AI features, including Voice Chat, Chat History, Images in Chat Answer, Knowledge Cards, Optimized Answers for Certain Topics, and Improved Copy Paste Support, make it more than just a search engine.
