Microsoft has announced a new version of its search engine, Bing by incorporating AI with Generative capabilities. Thus 8th February, 2023 is the day Microsoft opens up a race with its rivals. Apart from Bing, even Edge browser too will be revamped. Microsoft stakes its future on AI.

Alongside Bing’s search results, Microsoft is rolling out a chatbot that can summarise web pages, synthesize different sources, compose emails, translate the compositions in consumer hands.

If Microsoft gains one per cent point, it may lead to another $2 billion in ad revenues. Products such as cloud computing and collaboration tools would be positively affected.

Google’s Bard chatbot was given a prompt about the new discoveries from JWST which could be told to a 9-year old child. Its answer was inaccurate. It means Google must test its chatbot rigorously before putting it to use.
