Microsoft said on Friday it will limit chat sessions on its new Bing search engine powered by generative artificial intelligence (AI) to five questions per session and 50 questions per day.
"As we mentioned recently, very long chat sessions can
confuse the underlying chat model in the new Bing. To address these issues, we
have implemented some changes to help focus the chat sessions," Microsoft
said in the blog post.
Microsoft's decision comes days after some media outlets
reported that answers from the new Bing search engine were potentially
dangerous and that the technology might not be ready for prime time.
Early search results and conversations with Microsoft's Bing
and Google's chatbot, called Bard, have shown they can be unpredictable.
This week, when a Reuters reporter asked the new version of
Bing outfitted with AI for the price of car air filters, Bing included
advertisements for filters sold by auto parts website Parts Geek, not merely
specific answers to the question.
The new Bing, which has a wait list of millions of people
for access, is a potentially lucrative opportunity for Microsoft. The company
said during an investor and press presentation last week that every percentage
point of market share it gains in the search advertising market could bring in
another $2 billion of ad revenue. © Reuters
