Microsoft's Bing surpasses 100 million daily active users
Almost a month after the release of Microsoft’s new AI-powered Bing and Edge, the company said that it had surpassed more than one million Bing preview users and also crossed 100 million daily active Bing users.
According to the blog post, Microsoft mentioned that out of the Bing preview users, roughly one third was new to Bing while engagement was on the rise. The post highlights that with the help of the search engine new content was generated.
“We are also pleased to see the new Bing start to be used on mobile phones given the release of our new Bing Mobile app. On the small screen, Answers and Chat, now with voice input, are much more helpful, and have led to a 6X increase in the daily active users from pre-launch levels,” said Yusuf Mehdi, Corporate Vice President & Consumer Chief Marketing Officer at Microsoft.
However, the news comes after reports of the Bing chatbot “hallucinating” or generating unexpected answers such as reportedly claiming that it spied on employees through webcams, and lashing out emotionally against those making search queries.
In response, Microsoft set down a limit on the number of chats users could initiate while it worked on improvements, though the company increased these numbers towards the end of February.
