At Microsoft, they continue to work to improve this service, which has become the absolute focus of the company lately. This is the new Bing with ChatGPT, which continues to gain integers and now becomes more versatile and autonomous than ever.
He does it through a number of additional options which, for example, will allow automated restaurant reservations, image and video responses and results, or greater integration of Bing with ChatGPT in the Microsoft Edge browser.
Not only that: Bing with ChatGPT is now available to everyone, and you don’t need an invite to access that previously somewhat restricted preview version. It is an important step for an option that continues to mature and does so by growing in features.
As indicated in The Verge, the main change is in the “Actions” option (Actions) that appears in both Bing Chat and Edge. With this new feature, Microsoft’s ChatGPT-based chatbot is able to complete tasks without having to scroll back and forth in the browser.
Thus, we will be able to search for a recommended restaurant and Bing with ChatGPT will be able to find a space to reserve, as well as help us complete the reservation. In the Microsoft Edge browser, for example, it is possible to search for a movie to watch and, based on the recommendation, the browser “connects” to the service where it is available —we must be subscribed— to play it directly.
These options seem to be focused on the United States at the moment: the technological partners with which Microsoft collaborates in the field of movies, for example, are not known (the demo confirms that Apple TV + is one of them), but it is known that at the time to find a restaurant work with OpenTable.
Another novelty is the possibility of integrate image and video search directly on Bing with ChatGPT. Yusuf Mehdi, head of consumer marketing at Microsoft, explained that “we’re introducing richer, more visual answers, including charts and graphs, and updating the answer format, to help you more easily find the information you’re looking for.”
There will also be changes in another important area of using the Bing chatbot: we will be able to have at the end of the chat history, which will allow them to be consulted or resumed on different devices. At Microsoft they are proposing an export option to share part of those conversations on Twitter or in a Word document.
The integration of history in Microsoft Edge also offers interesting advantages. When we open a link from a Bing reply with ChatGPT in Edge, it will move that chat to a sidebar so we can keep asking while browsing that website.
Plug-ins are coming to Bing with ChatGPT coming soon. It is not known exactly when, but the idea here is to possibly port the ones available in ChatGPT Plus, such as OpenTable for restaurant reservations, Wolfram Alpha for visualizations and other use cases.
These options will arrive soon, and Microsoft indicates that they will give more details about all of them at the Microsoft Build event that will take place from May 22 to 25.
