Artificial intelligence technologies continue to take the internet by storm. The growing popularity of AI not only poses a threat to Google’s dominance but also raises security concerns in EU countries due to the information it provides. In the midst of this disruption, Microsoft has identified an opportunity and announced the development of Bing AI, a potential rival to ChatGPT. Most recently, the company unveiled plans to integrate Bing AI into the right-click menu of Microsoft Edge for Windows 11. Read on to learn more about this innovative integration and its implications for the future of browsing.

Microsoft Edge for Windows 11 is integrating Bing AI

Microsoft recently introduced Bing AI, an AI chatbot similar to ChatGPT. Now, the company is integrating AI into its right-click menu. This update allows users to select text on a webpage, choose “Search with Bing AI” from the Mini menu, and instantly open Bing Chat on the right side of their screen. Bing AI then provides comprehensive information related to the chosen text.

If users accidentally click the option, they can select “Ignore” to return to the webpage. The Mini menu is only available when text is highlighted; right-clicking without selecting text will display the standard context menu. In addition to the upgraded Bing AI integration, Microsoft Edge is introducing modular optional features support and other improvements to further optimize the user experience.

Unfortunately, it is unclear how popular these and other improvements will make Microsoft’s services. The company has long been lagging behind Google Chrome in terms of search engines and browsers. Although some of its moves have led to positive developments in addressing this issue, it is still far from being the leader.
