Google Chrome Bing AI for Windows devices is finally here

Google Chrome Bing AI is finally here for Windows devices, but there are a few things to keep in mind. This AI model is finally making its way to Google Chrome, thanks to the fact that Bing is available on the browser. Microsoft is now making Bing available on Chrome to give Windows 10 and 11 users of the browser more reasons to interact with the chatbot.

A few months ago, Microsoft rolled out this AI chatbot to the Edge browser. However, some users of Windows devices prefer Google Chrome to the Edge browser. This means that some people were missing out on all the Bing AI chatbot goodness.

Microsoft took note of this and is fixing the issue to bring the Bing AI chatbot to more users. By making this chatbot more accessible to users of different browsers, Microsoft can get more users to try out AI while browsing. But, despite bringing this feature to other browsers, Microsoft limits its usage, leaving some functions exclusive to the Edge browser.

Google Chrome on Windows devices gets Bing AI chatbot with some restrictions

Bringing Microsoft Edge to other browsers allows users of these browsers to use the Bing AI chatbot. Users of both Chrome and Safari browsers are now getting the opportunity to use AI tools on their browsers. However, there are some restrictions or limitations to the usage of this feature.

These restrictions are in place to give the Edge browser an upper hand. Recently, Windows 10 and 11 Chrome users are noticing a pop-up on the taskbar prompting them to try out Bing AI. Users that have tried out this feature point out that it supports dark mode.

For those that don’t like dark mode, they can switch to light mode in the hamburger settings. Some limitations include the fact that Microsoft is limiting the messages per conversation to only five entries. Also, the Bing chatbot on Chrome has a character limit of 2000 entries from the 4000 available on the Edge browser.

Another limitation of this feature is that only select users can access it at this point. Possibly, in the coming months, Microsoft will expand the usage of Bing chat on the Chrome browser to more users.

Reports also have it that Microsoft is working on improving the chatbot feature. The improvement might remove Bing chatbot’s dependency on a search engine to source replies for users. More information on the accessibility of the Bing chatbot to Chrome users and the coming improvements will be available in the coming months.
