#162Before long, we will have 10 ai-powered search engines. Here is an idea: create a website (or browser plugin) to organize the debate between search engines. That is, for every response from bing, send a question to bard ("I heard that ... Is it true?"), and then feed a response back to bing, etc., occasionally asking ddg to chime in. Suggested domain name: flamewar.ai

#163The Edge integration announced today also looks very impressive. I chuckled at the thought that MS is probably about to make a daily Edge user out of me and a lot of other people, but of course Edge is Chrome under the hood now. So Google beat MS to browser market dominance, and now MS is using their browser as a platform to go after Google's core business. Neat. I think this tech is going to be transformative for ev…
I ve been using Edge to read aloud documents and articles recently. It seems like its a great browser, but it s late to the party and it s hard for people to move there.

#165This is really interesting tech but I wonder how they are going to monetize this. Will it be traditional ads shown as results or would they be incorporated into the AI bots text? Like the "5-day trip to Mexico" prompt with the return being hotel stays and restaurants that fork up money to be included in the AI bots response.
They don't need to monetize it directly, if they can use it as a way to bring people back into the MS ecosystem. I'm a diehard linux guy without any microsoft computers at home, but I will absolutely set up a dedicated Windows 11 box if that's the only way to get unlimited access to this tech.

#166This is undeniably cool and impressive, but, I think proceeding down this research path, at this pace, is quite irresponsible. The primary effect of OpenAI's work has been to set off an arms race, and the effect of that is that humanity no longer has the ability to make decisions about how fast and how far to go with AGI development. Obviously this isn't a system that's going to recursively self-improve and wipe out…
Humanity never had a choice, I wonder what is the thought process of people that claim otherwise, like how did they get to that conclusion?

#167This feels like a great opportunity to give it a better name than Bing and quietly retire it.

#168From the Verge's liveblogging ( https://www.theverge.com/2023/2/7/23588249/microsoft-event-a... ) "This is an important part of the presentation, but I just want to note that Microsoft is having to carefully explain how its new search engine will be prevented from helping to plan school shootings. "Early red teaming showed that the model could help plan attacks" on things like schools. "We don't want to aid in illega…
Whatever. The entire internet can be used for "malicious use" This is cool tech, and right now it just needs to get out.
Yeah. We should probably delete all those pages on Wikipedia. Like, all of them. And Google Maps, too. Streetview? Another nightmare waiting to happen.

#169When will it launch??
From The Verge’s coverage:
New Bing is live today for desktop in a "limited preview." Everyone can try a limited number of queries and sign up for full access today. Millions of people in the coming weeks as well as mobile version.
Currently restricted to the US I believe.

#170Is the https://bing.com/new link working? I'm not sure if it's not live yet or if I'm not seeing it because I'm checking from a Mac (via both Chrome and the OSX version of Edge)
Not working for me in Sweden. Tried with Edge and Firefox on Windows 10. Seems region locked.
Now I get the "new" homepage but can only do pre-set queries.
