After Microsoft announced this week that it would integrate ChatGPT artificial intelligence technology into the Bing (Bing) search engine, the company is now working to integrate the same technology into its suite of Office applications. According to information from The Verge, the company wants to officially launch the feature in March.
According to the new information, Microsoft is testing ChatGPT in the Outlook email application to improve search results and suggest responses for creating email messages.
Microsoft also plans to integrate the service with the Word app to help users type text and the PowerPoint app to help create graphics.
According to the report, Microsoft is trying to speed up the process of introducing artificial intelligence capabilities into its programs in order to surpass its competitor Google in this field. According to the statement, Microsoft was planning to unveil Bing's artificial intelligence capabilities at the end of February, but the date was rushed so as not to be late to Google, which announced a similar move the day before Microsoft announced it.
According to the report, Microsoft CEO (Satya Nadella) urged his employees to speed up the rollout of these new features thanks to the huge success of ChatGPT, which reached 100 million monthly active users just two months after its launch. This made it the fastest growing web application in the world.
Although Microsoft has a contract with OpenAI to use ChatGPT, this indicates that the technology it uses in its search engine is a modified version that is more powerful than the regular version of ChatGPT since it is based on the new language model of ChatGPT for searches, adding that this model Faster, more accurate and functionally better than ChatGPT.
The company added that it developed its own approach to OpenAI models, allowing it to better leverage its strengths to provide the user with updated results that are more relevant to what they are looking for and with a broader range of security. She said that search engine improvements are not limited to chat input, but also include improving the quality of traditional search results. Quality is derived from the accuracy and relevance of those results to the search term.
In the middle of this week, the company announced a new version of Bing, powered by artificial intelligence capabilities, that provides users with a chat feature where users can ask questions and get answers in natural language, with updates and explanations for the answers.
In the face of fierce competition to improve its search engine with smart features, Google has also announced its competing plan called Bard, which offers similar features to its search engine.
It should be noted that Microsoft has not yet officially confirmed the latest release or leak date.
