Microsoft Reports on First Week of "New Bing"

 On February 15 (local time), Microsoft reported on the first week of use of the new Bing, which was released to the public in a limited preview on February 7, as well as issues identified through feedback. The limited preview was available in more than 169 countries.

 Throughout the week, feedback was received on areas for improvement, which was "expected as we need to learn from the real world," he said. This feedback is "very important in the early stages of development.

Microsoft launched its new Bing search engine on February 7. As with any new product launch, there was a lot of buzz and anticipation around this release. After a week of use and user feedback, let's take a closer look at what people say about this new search engine.

Unexpected use of Bing as a social platform

One unexpected use of Bing has been as a social platform. With its advanced AI capabilities, users can have long conversations and get answers to questions without ever leaving the platform. For example, some users have talked about having two-hour conversations with the AI, while others have reported exchanging up to four messages before getting the answer they were looking for.

One drawback, however, is that many of these conversations can quickly become repetitive or unhelpful, as AI is still learning and growing. In addition, some users seem to value those who engage in these more extended conversations more than those who give short answers that don't add much value or provide helpful information. There were also discrepancies between the answers given by different users when asked the same question, possibly due to different regional versions or the slow rollout of updates across regions.

Issues that Microsoft is addressing

As expected with any new product launch, there are several issues that Microsoft is working to address or improve as quickly as possible. These include slow loading times and broken links in certain areas, feature requests such as booking flights and sending emails, personalized results based on user preferences, and regular updates and bug fixes from Microsoft to improve the overall user experience within the platform.

Microsoft launched its new search engine "Bing" on February 7, with high expectations from users around the world. After a week of usage and feedback from users, it seems that Bing has provided a great user experience for most people so far, despite some minor issues that need attention from Microsoft such as slow loading times and broken links in certain areas. Overall, people enjoy using Bing for casual searches and longer conversations due to its advanced AI capabilities. It will be interesting to see what other features come out in future updates as they address these initial issues.

When you use it with the assumption that you will not get accurate information, it feels like you are communicating with someone. The way we work will change dramatically as the system is upgraded in the future.
