ChatGPT comes to Bing
Since the year 2023 began, there is no talk of anything else. But it is that this technology seems to be the revolution of the year and it does nothing but surprise us. Not in vain, Microsoft has invested 10,000 million dollars in the artificial intelligence of OpenAI, something that will bring the language model closer to Office. Of course, we refer to ChatGPT. Now, I have landed on Bing, Microsoft’s search engine, and here we show you how it works.
Beyond mentioning the ChatGPT tricks that you can already put into practice, we focus on the Bing Chat feature. We tell you what it is, what it is for and how it works. We do it using the preview with some examples proposed by Microsoft. Finally, we will tell you how to sign up for the waiting list so that you can be one of the first to try the full version of this function.
What is Bing Chat?
Bing chat is an integration of the OpenAI conversational model in the Microsoft browser. In other words, it is as if the Bing developers had integrated ChatGPT, but adapting it to search tasks. In this way, the user can carry out queries in a more natural way, without thinking so much about the keywords, as if they were having a conversation with someone.
The great reception that ChatGPT has had (at least among technology lovers) has meant a opportunity for Microsoft. His search engine, Bing, is not exactly a symbol of success within the company. It’s not that it’s a bad product, but that its market share, which is very low, has remained stable for years. There is no way to stand up to the almighty Google search engine. What if AI is the key to changing this trend?
Apparently, at Google they agree that the arrival of AI in searches represents a major paradigm shift. In fact, shortly after Microsoft made all this fuss, the company unveiled Bard, a direct rival to ChatGPT.
How Does This Artificial Intelligence Work on Bing?
At the moment, Bing proposes two ways to interact with the OpenAI conversational model in your browser. The first one is through the search box itself. Once the user enters their query, Bing returns a piece of text created by artificial intelligence in which the most convenient answer is provided.
It is important to note that, unlike ChatGPT, this solution yes that quote from internet sources. All of them allow the user to contrast the information provided by the chatbot and expand it if necessary.
In addition to search, the new Bing also features a tab named Chat. You can see in the previous image how they have added it to the first position, even before the image or video search engine.
In this section, the user will be able to interact more extensively with artificial intelligence. We are talking about a chat system very similar to the one we already know with ChatGPT. Perhaps most interestingly, even though the AI will continue to cite Internet sites, the traditional results They have no place in this section.
