Bing Chat Rolls Out 4 Upgrades

Bing announced a series of updates to its AI-powered chatbot experience. These updates include:

  1. Images In Chat: Bing can provide image responses to your queries.
  2. Answers Optimized By Topic: Bing has improved how it presents information for topics like shopping, weather, finance, and cars, making it easier for users to compare and understand information.
  3. Improved copy & paste: Bing chat now allows for a smoother process when copying code or other blocks of formatted text.
  4. Enhanced text formatting: You can now include text formattings such as paragraphs, bullets, or numbering in your chat prompts.

Building on features announced earlier this month, these updates demonstrate Bing’s commitment to refining its chat experience in response to user feedback.

Images In Chat Answers

Recognizing that search is an inherently visual experience, Bing has introduced images as part of its chat responses.

If you ask Bing chat questions about specific subjects, such as flamingos or capybaras, an image of these animals will appear in line with the answer.

You can click on the image to launch a knowledge card, providing a wealth of additional information about the animal’s habitat, diet, lifecycle, and more.

Bing plans to expand this feature to cover more topics, enhancing users’ visual and informative experience.

Answers Optimized By Topic

Bing has optimized answers for various topics, including shopping, weather, finance, and cars.

The visual elements that appear at the end of text-based answers have been redesigned to fit the Bing chat experience better.

For instance, when using chat for shopping, you can compare items side by side, a significant improvement over its previous capabilities.

Improved copy & paste experience

The copy-and-paste experience has been improved when Bing chat generates code or other blocks of formatted text.

You will now see a separate copy button allowing you to drop the text elsewhere quickly. This simplifies the process of sharing information obtained from Bing chat.

Enhanced text formatting

Lastly, Bing allows you to include text formatting like paragraphs, bullets, or numbering when writing or copying prompts into Bing chat.

This enhancement supports more structured and readable chat inputs, contributing to a smoother and more intuitive user experience​5​.

Bing continues to invite and value user feedback as it strives to deliver a comprehensive and engaging search experience.

With these new features and updates, Bing aims to refine its chat experience further, demonstrating its commitment to improving user interaction and satisfaction.
