Microsoft has updated its Edge browser with the new Copilot feature, which includes BingChat, as well as compose and insight features powered by AI.
Microsoft is finally making the version of Bing Chat we heard about in February a reality. The latest version of Microsoft Edge includes the Bing Copoilot sidebar, which allows you to chat, generate AI content, and get insights into topics powered by AI.
The Compose tab is where you can generate emails, blog posts, and even lists of ideas. It offers several tones ranging from professional to funny, as well as three lengths and four formats. Enter your prompt, select your parameters, and generate your draft. It doesn’t seem like the length matters much, though; even with a Short length, the AI would spit out five or more paragraphs to most prompts I entered.
The Insights tab is contextual, pulling insights from and around the website you’re currently on. For example, on the Digital Trends home page, it pulled some basic information about the website, where users are located, and how most visitors land on the website. It’s not clear where these analytics are coming from, though, outside of a “data from: bing.com” disclaimer at the bottom of the Insights window.
Briefly using the Copilot, the best use I found for it was shopping. When you land on a product, Copilot can easily gather reviews, news articles, comparisons, and alternatives. It’s what you’d find in a normal search, but you don’t have to make a separate search.
