Bing’s new Copilot Search is Microsoft’s answer to Google Search’s AI Mode

Microsoft is taking on Google Search’s AI Mode with a similar AI-powered search feature in Bing. The company says its new Copilot Search feature combines traditional web search with generative search to deliver detailed responses to complex queries. It also offers a more conversational search experience, allowing users to easily explore topics in depth without starting over.

Microsoft says the new feature uses Copliot’s AI to search the web and offer users an “easy-to-digest summary of the most critical points, a clear answer, or a smart layout of information” to help them find what they’re looking for. The responses feature clearly cited sources and even include “rich, relevant data, images, and videos” relevant to the query.
