Although all this artificial intelligence is coming from afar, it was at the end of last year that this problem began to explode in terms of the consumer market, and we can well assume that 2023 will be the year of AI in the applications we use every day, because this phenomenon is astounding. We’ll see where it all goes.

Whatever happens, there is no doubt that ChatGPT will be one of the big movers and Microsoft is one company that measures itself in this fieldgiven the huge millions being spent integrating OpenAI technology into virtually all of its products and services, at least the major ones: Windows, Microsoft Edge, Bing, Outlook, and Microsoft Office… even its cloud-based professional services cloud, Microsoft Azure, will have its dose of ChatGPT.

But where the software giant seems to be pinning its greatest hopes the momentum ChatGPT can provide is in Bing, a search engine that, depending on how you look at it, doesn’t rank so badly—it’s the second most used in the world—but it’s still trailing the industry’s number one, Google. Can the power of artificial intelligence change this situation, even if it is just a revival of competition? We’ll have to see.

It will have to be seen, yes; That said, Microsoft is excited about this invention, and their internal tests are the most optimistic, as can be deduced from everything they release when the opportunity arises. An example of this optimism is the poem that you can read below, a curiosity that arose from a message that came out, in which those responsible for it asked ChatGPT to write «some witty lines about how Microsoft is beating Google by integrating ChatGPT into Bing«:

Once upon a time there was a search engine called Bing

Which bothered, didn’t do much

But with ChatGPT on your side

It has finally gained its pride

And let Google search for his next fling

In Spanish (free adaptation):

Once upon a time, there was a Bing search engine.

Who fought without getting much

But with ChatGPT on your side

he finally got his way

And he left Google to find his next company.

As pointed out, this is still a curiosity without any background, but that IA – and ChatGPT as the main exponent – It hits hard, no one doubts that. So much so that Bing takes on Google? In my experience, ChatGPT is very interesting for many things and not recommended for others, but of course what I’ve tried, everyone else has a disabled version, which is not the same one that Microsoft will use.

and on the other hand, Google will not be silent: He already has his bard trained. Now let’s see which of the two writes better poems. But don’t let color cloud your judgment: AI won’t solve all your problems, and both Bing and Google, two excellent search engines, are also two services that don’t respect your privacy. There are alternatives.
