You'll also be able to Bing chat directly about websites you're viewing in the Edge mobile apps. (Let's just hope the company doesn't go all Vista with it.) Edge will also be empowered by Bing AI in new ways: Edge's built-in chat could show you places to watch a particular movie you're searching about. Microsoft says we'll eventually see a 'sleeker and enhanced' interface, thanks to rounded corners and semi-transparent elements. The Edge browser is getting its fair share of upgrades soon, as well. It'll be interesting to see how Microsoft manages those plugins though: How will those services be approved? And will they be able to access any of your data beyond the conversation they're being used in?

The company will soon offer third-party plugins to do things like confirm a reservation through OpenTable, or fetch complex math solutions from Wolfram|Alpha. Beware, college professors everywhere.Īs you'd expect, Microsoft also wants to fashion Bing's AI chat into a genuine platform. Improved summarization will also make Bing better at breaking down PDFs, documents or long websites. The company says it's also working on bringing over context from previous chats into your conversations, and it'll soon be adding share and export features.

Slowly, but surely, we're seeing Bing's AI integration blossom from a mere technical test into something that we can rely on as much as Microsoft Office.
