NewBing suddenly opened up to the outside world, and it also updated a bunch of functions to kill friends.
Original shichao bad review
Yesterday, Bing ushered in a super heavy update.
Apart from other details of the update, a comprehensive open beta is enough.
This means that you only need to register a Microsoft account to use Bing Chat.
In this way, I’m afraid Bing is the biggest language model with the lowest usage threshold at present.
In addition to the open beta, other updates are also very exciting. Before you rush to experience it, you can find out what new tricks Microsoft has made this time.
The world super here, for everyone to sum up as follows:
1. Multi-modal content and text mapping.
2. Historical record function.
3. Open plug-in access.
4, and a bunch of ultra-practical small functions.
It should be noted that at present, not all functions are open, so I will introduce them to you one by one.
First of all, it is the first update: graphic and multimodal content.
Although Microsoft launched Wencheng Map before, it has updated more than 100 languages this time, and now you can directly ask Bing to help you generate pictures in Chinese.
If you want to experience the latest pictures, you need to adjust the dialogue style to be "more creative". After that, just click and ask.
However, after the experience of Shichao, I feel that Bing’s Wen Chengtu is still almost interesting.
Because Bing is connected to DALL·E, the generated pictures may be good before. However, compared with midjourney and Stable Diffusion, which are now popular, it’s not enough. .
Moreover, although Chinese input is supported, the understanding of Chinese in Bing drawing is almost unknown.
When Shi Chao asked a classic "braised lion head", Bing really brought me a plate of lion head. .
If we look closely, we will find that it translates "lion’s head" into "lion’s head"
Sweet and Sour Mandarin Fish painted real squirrels and real fish. .
But Shichao soon discovered that it was not that Bing couldn’t draw. .
If we ask it to translate the input into English, it will understand that the lion’s head is not a lion, but a pork ball.
After the translation is in place, there is nothing wrong with the generated picture.
From this point of view, Bing’s own Chinese understanding should be no problem.
However, Wenchengtu is based on Bing image creator, a Microsoft painting platform, which may have translated Chinese literally when drawing.
After trying Wenchengtu, we are only halfway through the first big update. Visually, Bing has another highlight this time, which is its multimodal content.
When we ask a question, the related pictures will be displayed below the text results. In this way, the results can be displayed very intuitively, saving the time of going in and watching one by one.
Also asked "Braised Lion Head", Bing’s answer was completely correct, and even introduced the practice of this dish.
Shichao thought it would be convenient to use this image output function to find expression packs.
In addition to pictures, Bing’s multimodal mode also supports video output. Moreover, when we move the mouse to the video cover, we can also preview and play it online.
After that, not only the output content supports multimodal, but also the input can be uploaded with pictures.
What can be experienced at present is almost the first big update. Because of the following contents, most of them are not open to the public yet.
Although I can’t get started yet, from the demonstration video, it seems that they are the real highlights.
For example, the second updated history function can take the conversation experience to the next level.
Every time we ask questions, we will be saved in the guide on the right. Click on the question to jump to the corresponding location.
Moreover, after clicking on the answer link, Bing Chat will shrink to the side and become a page sidebar.
This small change is quite convenient. For example, if we import a PDF, we can use Bing to help you summarize, find words and translate.
In addition, Bing will also support long conversations. Even if we quit and close the chat interface halfway, the conversation will remain. Next time you click in, you can continue from the last place.
Chat content will also support exporting and sharing, and can be shared with friends on social media with one click, or imported into applications such as Word.
If the second update is to make it more convenient for users.
The third major update, which is also the most likely function of Shichao-plug-in, is to make Bing super-evolve.
The official example says that he is about to access the takeaway platform OpenTable. This means that in a word, you can ask Bing to recommend a restaurant for you, or make a direct restaurant reservation.
If you can access other platforms in the future, you may be able to stimulate stronger functions. For example, by accessing a map, you can make a route according to your own needs.
In addition, Microsoft will build a development platform to let more people participate in the development of plug-ins.
If this road goes on, it will be more than just the work done by search engines in the past.
In addition to the above three major updates, Microsoft also showed a lot of practical small functions, such as asking Bing to find a movie for you, and after finding it, you can jump and play it directly.
The mobile version will support page context questions, for example, if you are browsing an article or a website, you can ask Bing questions about what you are browsing, and it can also answer them.
Or write a manuscript directly on the Bing page and tell it the tone, length and wording you want.
I got so cruel that I even lost my job in Microsoft 365. .
Generally speaking, this update of Bing shows the ambition of this search engine.
That is: what search engines can do, I want to do my best, and what search engines can’t do before, I want to steal it now.
Moreover, in the official blog, Microsoft said that Bing’s daily activities have exceeded 100 million, and the daily installation of APP has increased fourfold.
In addition, the share of Edge continues to grow for 8 consecutive years, and various functions are updated and added, and third-party plug-ins supplement Bing.
Establishing a new Microsoft ecosystem may, indeed, be just around the corner.
Although many functions are not online yet, the next update is not far away. Because according to the feedback uploaded by users, Microsoft will make updates and changes every week.
Although very unkind, I really miss @ Google at this moment.
Brother, others have gone to the next Level. What about yours?
