While OpenAI has emerged as a piece of big news this month, Microsoft too announced numerous updated AI features for its mobile-based apps. OpenAI fiercely competes with other reputable tech companies like Google. It has reportedly announced many changes to Bing, including new features.
Knowledge Cards, graphs, social sharing, and better formatting capabilities within Bing Chat across mobile and desktop are parts of those changes OpenAI has brought to its partner, Bing.
The company will make chat history available across mobile and desktop, letting users view their recent activities. Microsoft says the mobile version of Bing will have the new feature first. Users can also include a Bing Chat widget in their Android or iOS Home Screen to access Bing Chat. They can also tap the app icon to direct move to the chat or click to microphone button to make a query.
You can also initiate a Bing Chat on your desktop and continue it on your phone, as the company will release the relevant feature in the coming week. The tech giant aims to expand the new feature alongside the voice input’s language support across the United States.
Microsoft will also make Bing Chat a part of its mobile-based Edge browser app. It allows you to make queries about the mobile site you view or summarize the page. Users can highlight a word or phrase while reading the content. You can also keep the site open during the chat with Bing to educate yourself on the topic.
The New AI-powered Features
Microsoft announced new AI-powered features in early May to let them fly. Users will find a much richer Bing experience on desktop and mobile with Knowledge Cards, videos, social sharing capabilities, graphs, and better formatting.
The SwiftKey, a keyboard app, comes as another update. It can compose the text for users according to the parameters a user suggests about the subject length, tone, format, and matter. According to Microsoft, you can use it for numerous tasks, including writing emails. Android and iOS users will have the feature accessible in a few weeks. The tech giant has also rolled out Bing to Skype users who can use it in group conversations. The company will integrate an AI-powered translator into the SwiftKey keyboard.
Moreover, Google also experiments with AI features via Search Labs, which houses numerous projects like AI-powered search features, digital note-taking projects, MusicLM, and Google Workspaces. Microsoft aims to offer innovations that can transform the search experience for all users, including new and existing Bing users. The software giant has taken steps with new mobile-first practices that complement its desktop capabilities and introduce visual updates across the app.
Bing Chat arrived in the tech market a hundred days before, and. Microsoft has continuously delivered new features since then. The latest updates follow from the Google I/O developer event, wherein it rolled out Bard – the new AI-powered chatbot to the general public. Google quickly adds Bard access to its mobile app, as Microsoft Bing integrates the new app into its home screen widgets.
