Microsoft Build 2023: Top improvements include AI advances on Edge and Bing for ChatGPT

 At the Microsoft Build event, the tech giant introduced a number of AI-powered innovations for its search and productivity tools.




The eagerly anticipated Microsoft Build 2023 event took place in Seattle, US, as Microsoft rides the AI wave. The tech giant recently unveiled copilot for the web, the new Bing search engine with AI, and the Edge browser. And because of this, the tech giant has jumped well ahead of its competitors in the continuing AI arms race.


The Microsoft Build conference served primarily as a showcase for new tools and methods for developers. The edition this year saw the introduction of new AI-related technologies. 


The tech juggernaut debuted a number of AI-supported features and improvements to its product range during the event. Following a keynote address by Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, a number of the company's AI products were progressively introduced. Responsible usage and deployment of AI technology predominated the event, along with discussions on the amazing possibilities of AI. 



New plugins, Bing coming to ChatGPT, and more


Microsoft released a number of AI tools during the past four months, and at the event the business said it had seen impressive growth in a short period of time. In addition to creating 200 million photos with Bing Image Creator and participating in over half a billion discussions, Microsoft reports that Bing users have downloaded the Bing Mobile app eight times more frequently each day. Microsoft said that it was making the next step in the way consumers and developers can engage with search after seeing unparalleled success. 


Bing powered by AI is now available to everyone, and enhanced chat now allows you to book meals, search for photographs, and more.


The integration of Bing Search into ChatGPT, a shared plugin platform with OpenAI and additional plugin partners, and wider integration of Bing Chat across Microsoft Copilots are the three major enhancements that Microsoft has provided for Bing. 

As of right now, Bing will be ChatGPT's default search engine, giving the bot access to current information from all over the internet. As of right now, according to the business, ChatGPT replies will be supported by citation-rich search and online data. For ChatGPT Plus users, the new experience will be available as of right now. Users will just need to enable a plugin to make Bing available on ChatGPT when it becomes soon available to them for free. 

Additionally, Microsoft and OpenAI will jointly pledge to promote and develop the ecosystem of AI plugins by embracing interoperability. Now that there is a single platform for developers to use, they can create and publish plugins for both consumer and enterprise systems including Bing, ChatGPT, Dynamics 365 Copilot, Windows Copilot, and Microsoft 365 Copilot. Support for plugins from Expedia, Instacart, Kayak, Klarna, Redfin, TripAdvisor, and Zillow will be added to Bing. These plugins would allow the chatbot to provide consumers with recommendations that are pertinent to their needs. 

Bing Chat will also be incorporated into Microsoft Edge and Windows Copilot, according to the firm. Users will receive highly individualised responses and pertinent ideas thanks to the integration.
