SwiftKey now also has the capacity to compose text for you using AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Microsoft is marking 100 days since launching artificial intelligence-powered search on Bing with a few updates to the system. One of those is adding a chatbot widget for phone screens across both iOS and Android.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“This week, we’re launching a new Bing Chat widget,” Microsoft said in a blog post Tuesday. “Soon, you’ll be able to click the Bing icon to land directly in the new Bing Chat experience, or click the microphone icon to verbally ask a question.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Microsoft in February unveiled Bing search powered by the large language tech behind ChatGPT, saying its search engine is now an “AI-powered co-pilot for the web.” Search results began incorporating info from OpenAI as well as Bing adding a chat window to help you with things like making shopping lists, summarizing PDFs, generating LinkedIn posts and giving advice to your queries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Bing AI chatbot was opened to everyone with a Microsoft account in early May, though it was limited to the Edge browser on computers, phones and tablets and the Bing app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tuesday’s news means it’s now available as a widget too. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Microsoft also announced it has brought AI-powered Bing to the Compose feature in the SwiftKey keyboard, “which will now draft text for you according to the parameters you suggest — not just the subject matter but also the message tone, format and length.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It’s also improved the quality of chats in other languages than English and added the ability to continue your chatbot conversation between your mobile device and your desktop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
