Microsoft’s new Bing AI Chatbot has been making waves for the past month. With over 100 million daily active users, a third of whom use Bing Chat daily, we thought now would be a great time to show what Bing Chat is all about and why so many people are eager to get access to it.
At this time, Bing Chat is available in limited preview, which means you must first join a waiting list before gaining access. You can do it on the Bing website here, but if you’re still waiting, our hands-on video will show you what Bing is now capable of on the web, in the Bing Mobile app, and how Bing integrates with Microsoft Edge to make browsing on the web be smarter.
Bing Chat on the web is where most people will experience this new AI. You can access it directly from Bing.com, and it offers a chat interface where you can ask Bing for search queries or start creative tasks. You can also access this experience through the search button on the taskbar in Windows 11.
Then there’s the Bing Mobile app, which does everything the Bing web experience does, but with the ability to use your voice as an input method. You can talk to Bing, and Bing will answer you with its own voice.
Lastly, there’s the integration with Microsoft Edge, which is still in preview. There’s a new Bing sidebar that can analyze the web pages you’re viewing and offers useful data and information about the website or content you’re viewing. You can ask Bing to summarize an active web page and even ask it to generate a reply to a comment or email you might be viewing.
Bing AI is pretty impressive, but it’s important to remember that not everything it says will always be correct. In our video, a question we asked twice gave us two different answers. So it’s important to double-check the information Bing has generated by heading to the source material, which Bing easily links to below its results.
Be sure to check out the video embedded above for a more detailed overview of these experiences!
