It was roughly thirty minutes of conversation that offered little in the way of practical details, as the panelists gave vague assertions of how Microsoft has been working to integrate 'AI' into its products in ways that help customers without provoking too much ire. We've also been treated to a roundtable discussion of 'Responsible AI' featuring Microsoft staffers Brad Smith (VP), Natasha Crampton (Chief Responsible AI Officer), and Sarah Bird (Responsible AI Lead, Azure AI) about the role of Microsoft's internal Responsible AI department. Things have quieted down here at Microsoft, where attendees of the company's small in-person event heralding the New and Improved Bing (powered by OpenAI) are milling about watching company reps demonstrate how the new search engine works. You wouldn't mistake them for pearls of wisdom from a beloved author, but they're on par with your average Wikipedia entry, and they'll presumably get better and better from here. These answers are automatically footnoted with links to where the search engine found the information, but it's hard to see why anyone would click them when the answers are so usable as-is. Right now, the answers this AI-powered Bing provides to such questions are written simply, with lots of short paragraphs and bulleted lists that provide basic answers.

He hasn't given a lot of in-depth answers, but he has demonstrated how the new Bing can quickly pull data from the Internet to provide multi-paragraph answers to questions like 'which laptop is the best?' or 'where should I go on my trip to the Netherlands?' He's also shown us how you can slide into a separate 'Chat' with Bing when you want to ask follow-up questions about an answer, and it can try to answer them in natural language. We can ask as many questions as we like, but we can't actually go hands-on with the new AI-powered Bing and Edge ourselves until later in the day.įor the last twenty minutes I've been pestering a fresh-faced Microsoft PR person named Mark with questions about what this upgraded Bing can do, how it works and why. Here at the event we've been let out of the theater and into a holding pen waiting area where friendly Microsoft staffpeople are standing around near laptops with access to the new Bing. The thought is that the Anthropic-Google partnership could lead to more AI-powered features for Google down the road. Just yesterday, Google announced a $400 million investment in Anthropic, a ChatGPT rival. No wonder, then, that Google is scrambling to take on ChatGPT.

It's currently free to use, though there is a paid version, ChatGPT Plus, that lets you use the chatbot even when demand is high.

In case you don't know what OpenAI's ChatGPT is, it's an increasingly popular chatbot that uses AI to handle everything from holding conversations to creating full articles and reports. To close things out, Altman briefly came on-stage to note that 'this new Bing experience is powered by one of our next-generation models' custom-built for Bing search, adding that 'we're so grateful to have a partner that shares our vision and values of building an AI that's safe.'

'I think this technology is going to reshape pretty much every software category.' 'Both we at Microsoft and our partners at OpenAI deeply care about this,' Nadella said at the start of the event.
