Microsoft has unveiled the "age of Al," with new conversational ChatGPT features for Bing that the company described as the "Al-powered copilot for the web."
Microsoft will add contextual searches to Bing, powered by its own version of the ChatGPT algorithm. Microsoft will also integrate a separate, dedicated chat interface for Bing, complete with footnoted links. Finally, Al will be integrated into Edge, allowing users to summarize a financial earnings report, for example. Bing’s new search engine interface is live, but at this writing people who want to try it must sign up for a waitlist. It will expand in coming weeks.
Satya Nadella, Microsoft’s chief executive, likened AI and the launch of ChatGPT (fave. co/3I7qDye) to the opening of the Web. “It was the Mosaic moment,” Nadella said. “I think this technology will reshape pretty much every software category. The question is, how is AI going to reshape the Web?…All computer interaction will be mediated with an agent helping them.” Nadella said it will begin with search.
Microsoft executives said search has remained fundamentally the same as it was 20 years ago. It works well for factual queries, but stumbles when asked to make specific recommendations. Microsoft plans to have a new Bing search and Bing browser use chat technology to answer questions posed by users. Corporate vice president Yusuf Mehdi said Bing will incorporate a powerful new GPT model called Prometheus, which is an enhanced model of the ChatGPT algorithm.
