Microsoft is doubling down on AI to make Bing smarter and more personalized. At a recent event in New York, the tech giant announced a slew of AI-driven features that will soon be integrated into Bing. These updates aim to make the search experience more intuitive, secure, and tailored to individual users.
AI-Powered Bing Features
- DALL-E 3 Integration: Microsoft is upgrading its Bing search engine to include OpenAI's latest DALL-E 3 model. This will enhance the quality of generated images, particularly in intricate details like fingers, eyes, and shadows.
- AI Watermarks: To ensure responsible AI image generation, Bing will add invisible digital watermarks to all AI-generated images. This feature, known as Content Credentials, uses cryptographic methods and adheres to standards set by the Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity (C2PA).

- AI in Windows 11: Alongside Bing, Microsoft's Windows 11 will also see several AI improvements, including the introduction of AI helper Copilot, which will be available across Bing, Edge, and Microsoft 365.
