Microsoft to Add New Bing to Windows Computers
March 1, 2023
On Tuesday, Microsoft Corporation began integrating its recently updated Bing search engine into its Windows computer software, with the goal of putting artificial intelligence (AI) at the fingertips of hundreds of millions of people.
The Windows 11 update, the latest in a series of product updates this month from Microsoft, demonstrates how the Redmond, Washington-based software company is pushing ahead with AI despite recent criticism of its technology.
Microsoft's operating system will include the new Bing in desktop computers' search box, which helps half a billion monthly users navigate their files and the internet, the company said. The search engine itself is still in preview mode, with more than 1 million people in 169 countries on a waiting list, according to Microsoft.
In addition to the new Bing, Microsoft's Windows update will include software that can connect to iPhone messages and calls, beginning with a small group of users.
