According to 9to5google, Microsoft wants to take a step forward with ChatGPT and add it to its search engine Bing. Relying on ChatGPT capabilities, Microsoft can turn Bing into a fierce rival of Google and gain a share of the search market.
ChatGPT is the latest buzzword in technology that has created a lot of excitement among users and also fear among companies. Many believe ChatGPT is the future of search and can vanish traditional search engines like Google. That’s why Google declared a code red to build a rival for ChatGPT. The Mountain View-based company is reportedly considering DeepMind’s Sparrow as an answer to ChatGPT.
While Google was terrified of ChatGPT, Microsoft seized the opportunity to invest $10 billion in OpenAI, the parent company of ChatGPT. The investment will allow Microsoft to use the OpenAI resources for its products, specifically the Bing search engine. Microsoft is now reportedly testing the integration of ChatGPT into Bing, and a Twitter user has been lucky enough to access the beta version.
Microsoft integrates ChatGPT into Bing, hoping to overthrow Google’s reign
The tester, Owen Yin, has published a post on Medium to explain his experience, saying the test was live for a short time and immediately went off. The experiment was reportedly called “new Bing” by Microsoft. As you can see in the below screenshots, the Bing interface has been revamped to match the new features.
There is also an “ask me anything” box with a 1,000-character limit that works like a chatbot. Of course, you can still access the regular search results on Bing. The experiment by Microsoft is in the test phase, but it can go live on Bing a few months later.
The credibility of ChatGPT answers is often controversial, and some Q&A websites even banned AI-generated answers. Additionally, some argue that ChatGPT’s use of website content is not fair and that the company should pay publishers for their content.
