Bing Chat comes with a function to share links to chatbot answers

Microsoft has added a button to Bing AI that allows users to share their conversations with the bot online via a link. When users click that, the last reply from the shared conversation opens in Bing Chat, allowing other users to continue the conversation.

Users can share Bing’s response directly to Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and email, or they can generate a persistent link. If others open the link, they will be sent to Bing Chat, which will then populate the shared response, including attribution. The question that led to that answer, on the other hand, is not shared.

Users can then ask follow-up questions based on the shared answer. The Verge opened for example, a link from a Bing bot that listed some meal ideas, then asked for vegetarian versions of those meals. The site does state that this does not always seem to work, without giving examples.

In addition promises Microsoft now that Bing AI’s ‘More Balanced’ conversation style, which requires the bot to provide shorter but faster responses, should work ‘significantly’ better. The bot should also be able to understand context better in the ‘More Creative’ style. This should allow Bing to better summarize large amounts of text and handle longer conversations. Finally, the maximum number of questions per session has been increased to fifteen and the total number of questions per day has been increased to 150.
