Microsoft thinks Bing AI is superior to Google Bard and wants you to know

Microsoft revived one of its old tactics to convince users to use competing products.

The warning lasts a few seconds and prompts the user to click the Bing button in the address bar. While the browser activate the new split screen feature and open the Microsoft search engine in one of them.

Microsoft strategy This is similar to the intrusive messages that appear on Chrome downloads web., although in this case the solution is more useful. Edge is not only promoting the newly released feature, but also testing its browser capabilities with ChatGPT. Luckily for Bing, the balance is in its favor most of the time.

The problem with this comparison is that Bard’s experience is almost identical to ChatGPT.. When you ask a question, Google’s artificial intelligence will respond with a block of text. In Bing, responses are accompanied by links to the sources from which the information was obtained. In addition, the chatbot offers to supplement the data with additional questions.

Microsoft Bing vs. Google Bard: Which is better?

Overall, the comparison leaves Microsoft’s AI in a better position. It lets you drill down into queries, does it in Spanish, and offers links to sources. Another plus is that you can choose from three conversation styles to get more creative, balanced, or precise responses.

Nevertheless, It’s a little unfair to compare Bard to Bing, as they are two different things.. While Microsoft’s variant integrates OpenAI AI, it’s still a browser. In any case, the most appropriate split screen comparison should be Bard vs. ChatGPT.

Those interested in competing between the two most powerful AIs will be able to do so with Edge Canary. Browser Beta Matters a shortcut in the address bar to activate this feature. On any site, the icon is displayed as a small split rectangle, but this will change to a Bing button and will display a message when accessing the Bard website.

It is possible that this functionality will be offered in the next version of Edge. Understandably, Microsoft never bothered to add warnings to its products to keep users from joining the competition.
