The new Bing and Edge
Microsoft has brought together search, browsing and chat into one unified experience you can invoke from anywhere on the web, delivering:

These substitutions work especially well in muffins and cakes.
A New Chat Experience🗼
For more complex searches – such as for planning a detailed trip itinerary or researching what TV to buy – the new Bing offers new, interactive chat.
The chat experience empowers you to refine your search until you get the complete answer you are looking for by asking for more details, clarity and ideas – with links available so you can immediately act on your decisions.

New Creative Spark 🌸

The new Bing also cites all its sources, so you’re able to see links to the web content it references.
New Microsoft Edge experience 🖥️
Microsoft updated the Edge browser with new AI capabilities and a new look, has added two new functionalities: Chat and compose. With the Edge Sidebar, you can ask for a summary of a lengthy financial report to get the key takeaways – and then use the chat function to ask for a comparison to a competing company’s financials and automatically put it in a table.
You can also ask Edge to help you compose content, such as a LinkedIn post, by giving it a few prompts to get you started.
After that, you can ask it to help you update the tone, format and length of the post. Edge can understand the web page you’re on and adapts accordingly.
