Table of Contents
A Microsoft is doing everything to make its updated search engine, the Bing with ChatGPT, launched in February this year, is really useful and mainly remembered by people when doing a search or any other day-to-day task.
The waiting list has been extinguished and all interested parties can make use of the artificial intelligence that promises to be more complete than ChatGPT. See all the details and news right now.
End of waiting list
Not everyone could use the bing with AI and, if the usage number was too high, it was necessary to wait a while and register on the waiting list. Yusuf Mehdi, director of consumer marketing at Microsoft, appeared at the end of the event to mention that the waiting list no longer exists and everyone can make use of artificial intelligence, already with the news presented today (04).
Although not required for use, we recommend that you use the Edge browser to have access to all Bing Chat features and even some features are only available to those who use the new feature in this application. We also recommend that you log in to your Microsoft so that conversation history and other details are saved between different devices.
Launched about 3 months ago, the bingchat has been updated with GPT-4 language model to offer even more convenience to its users. The tool, integrated with the developer's services Windows, already has more than 100 million active users and the Edge browser smartphone app had a fourfold increase in installations than before the novelty debuted.
In just 90 days, our users engaged in over half a billion chats. In addition, there were more than 200 million images produced with Bing Image Creator.

Using it is very simple: in your edge browser, just click on the Bing icon and a window will open. Then, start interacting to receive answers from the artificial intelligence. Here it is:
If you prefer to use the tool in another browser, you can access the Bing with AI through the official website, but some functionality may not be available due to it being primarily developed to work with the Microsoft Edge.
No Android, you can count on the application of Bing available for free on the Google Play Store. After installation, just click on the Microsoft search engine icon and start interacting.
A unique feature of the application is that you can "talk" to the Bing with ChatGPT and wait for a response to be sent, just as you already do with Google Assistant, Alexa or Siri.
The application Bing is also available on the App Store and you can use it for free on your iPhone or iPad.
What's coming to the new Bing?
The developer of Windows announced five new features that include video responses, restaurant reservations, choice of tone when creating a document, and even the ability to save what was previously discussed. We've gathered it all below.
multimodal support
Despite the somewhat complex name, the bing with AI now it can send responses to users with videos and images for a better explanation. The concept is very simple: whenever the artificial intelligence realizes that the answer can be improved, photos and even video links from the YouTube within the user's chat.
A Microsoft it also complements that multimodal support arrives to create formatted tables and graphs. In other words, it will be possible for Bing with AI to create files about a company's billing and even create Excel files ready to be presented or edited.
Another novelty that arrives is the reading of images sent by the user to the BingChat. It is a novelty similar to the Google Lens: instead of simply describing the image, just upload it to Bing chat and wait for it to be read by the artificial intelligence.
History on Bing with ChatGPT
Available on ChatGPT since launch, this was a novelty that had not yet reached the Bing with AI da Microsoft. If a person leaves the conversation and returns later, it is no longer necessary to restart the entire conversation. The company confirms that this can be done from any device, so you can start the conversation on your cell phone and continue the conversation on your computer, for example.
Another novelty is that, if a link is sent by the artificial intelligence, it will still be possible to talk to the AI, as it will be minimized instead of being closed after someone clicks on the link. It is interesting to mention that Edge's sidebar will be used for this to work.
If you want to leave all the conversation, files sent and other details, you can download everything that was sent. A download button will be available soon and it will be possible to open this with Word or Excel. Links will also be clickable for an offline query to be performed.
Scheduling restaurant reservations
The most incredible novelty bears the name of Edge Actions. The feature will be able to understand what is appearing on the screen and use Bing's AI-powered personal assistant to do some basic activities, such as booking tables at your favorite restaurant without having to close the conversation window.
During the example shown in video, Edge Actions connected to the booking service Open table and it was only necessary for the user to select his favorite for the rest of the service to be performed by BingChat. Check out:
In the future, we can expect that the possibility of reserving tables in restaurants will be expanded to other cultural services, such as buying tickets for cinemas and even concerts. It is important to remember that the Edge Actions is not exactly new: the Google Duplex It does a similar job, but it still hasn't quite caught on and been as effective as the Bing Chat preview. We will see which one will be the most used by users over the months of 2023.
text refinement
Currently, it is already possible to request that the ChatGPT create texts with a more serious or more relaxed tone, but the bingchat gained an even more complete tool. As promised in February 2023, the novelty allows the user to request complete paragraphs or even receive a text ready to be sent in email format. Text styles vary between: relaxed, professional or enthusiastic.
After that, it is possible to choose the format of what was received (larger or smaller) and even ask for the ideas to be separated into topic.
Want to improve this even further? A preview of the text can be seen and details can be edited, such as: adding more verbs, removing redundant words and quantifying the data presented. It is also possible to order ready formatting to be published on a blog. Check out this video showing text refinement:
released to third parties
Offering a very complete package to its users, Microsoft announced that its chatbot will be released to companies that develop functionalities of the most diverse types. With the release of the source code, it will be possible to create plugins, integrations and other ways that unify websites and third-party applications with Bing Chat.
This will be essential for the novelty launched in February 2023 to become popular, now that it will be available on websites that we use in our daily lives. It should take at least six months for the first integrations to be released and the idea for the Microsoft finally take off as the company would like.
