Microsoft Expands Bing AI to Safari and Chrome With Feature Limits
Microsoft brings its AI-powered Bing to third-party browsers like Safari and Chrome, though it reserves full capabilities for its own Edge browser. The expansion marks six months since the tool's launch, a period that saw over one billion user requests.
Microsoft expands its AI-powered Bing to third-party browsers like Safari and Chrome to reach a broader audience. This move marks the six-month anniversary of the tool's launch, a period during which users submit over one billion requests to the AI service.
Despite this expansion, Microsoft encourages users to stick with its Edge browser by limiting certain features in rival applications. Users who access Bing through Safari or Chrome receive core functions like summarized answers and image creation, but they miss out on longer conversations and chat history.
This announcement highlights Microsoft's commitment to growing its AI ecosystem beyond its own software, even as competitors like Apple develop internal AI tools. The company promises even more advancements in the coming months as it continues to evolve the Bing experience.
