‘Microsoft wants to integrate AI tool ChatGPT into Bing search results’
Microsoft plans to add OpenAI’s ChatGPT chatbot to its Bing search engine. Sources of various media report this. The company wants to use ChatGPT to provide better answers to queries.
Microsoft wants to use ChatGPT to answer certain Bing queries, instead of just showing a list of links. This is reported by anonymous sources The Information and Bloomberg. Microsoft would like to lure users away from Google’s search engine, which a significantly larger market share than Bing has.
The feature could still be released this quarter, but Microsoft is currently investigating how accurate ChatGPT is and how quickly this AI model can be integrated into Bing. The first release could be limited to a small-scale test with a small number of users. A specific release date has not yet been announced. Microsoft and OpenAI have not yet responded to the messages.
OpenAI, an AI company in which Microsoft previously invested a billion dollars, released a public version of ChatGPT in November. This AI tool is capable of having full conversations with users, including answering follow-up questions. The bot sometimes mentions incorrect information, but can possibly be used to summarize public information from search engines, Bloomberg also writes.
