Much has been speculated about the integration with Bing with ChatGPT and today Microsoft is confirming this news in an event led by its CEO, Satya Nadella. More than that, OpenAI’s artificial intelligence will even be used in Microsoft Edge, which will gain interesting functions soon.
Starting with Bing, Nadella says that the idea is to revolutionize search, as this tool has been stagnant for many years and deserves to gain a new, more intuitive format.
It’s a new day in the quest. The race starts today, and we’re going to move and move quickly. The race starts today, and we’re going to move and move quickly.
The first news is that Bing integrated with ChatGPT will support searches of up to 1,000 characters, which will allow users to search in more detail for what they want using natural language questions instead of terms like we do in our competitors.
The answer will also be provided in natural language, this means that you will not have to open any links to get the direct information. One example shown was whether a particular sofa model would fit in a minivan. Bing searched for vehicle and sofa measurements to respond, saving the user several clicks and searches.
In addition, Bing will now have a chat function, where it will be possible to talk to the AI just as it is already done with ChatGPT, but this time it will be powered by the knowledge cataloged by the search engine, providing natural answers and accurate information by through the 3.5 template of ChatGPT called “Prometheus”.
Prometheus is able to provide up-to-date information with annotations and sources to give more context to research.
The integrations with Microsoft Edge include a new tool to compose texts using the artificial intelligence of ChatGPT with conversation options and adjustments to define the format, tone and size of the result.
The new Bing with ChatGPT will be available today as a “Limited Preview for Desktop Users” on Bing.com, where you’ll be able to try limited queries, but you’ll be able to subscribe for full access in the future. Microsoft Edge with the new tools will be released in the coming weeks.
