\u201cit\u2019s a new day in search,\u201d said microsoft ceo satya nadella at an event announcing the products. the paradigm for web search, according to nadella, hasn’t changed in decades, but ai can offer information more swiftly and fluidly than conventional techniques.<\/p>\n

\u201cthe race starts today, and we\u2019re going to move and move fast,\u201d nadella said. \u201cmost importantly, we want to have a lot of fun innovating again in search, because it\u2019s high time.\u201d<\/p>\n

the company later showed how “the new bing” operated in various settings. one of the settings allows users to interact directly with the bing chatbot by asking it questions in a chat interface like chatgpt, while another mode displays conventional search results alongside ai annotations.<\/p>\n

microsoft demonstrated several sample searches, including looking for travel advice, recipes and ikea furnishings. bing was instructed to “prepare an itinerary for each day of a five-day trip to mexico city” in one demonstration. the chatbot provided a complete response, including a general itinerary and providing links to more resources.<\/p>\n
