The purpose of the ‘no search’ feature is to enable the Bing chatbot to answer user queries without resorting to web searches. Rather than relying on external data, the chatbot will provide autonomous responses based on its own knowledge. This is expected to enhance the speed of Bing AI’s replies, reducing latency spikes and delivering quicker answers to users.
The introduction of ‘no search’ aligns with Microsoft’s ongoing efforts to enhance the capabilities of Bing AI. Recent updates have included improved sports knowledge for queries related to major games, while an upcoming feature called Bing Vision will enable image recognition. With Bing Vision, users can submit images to the chatbot and receive identification of locations, buildings, and more. This feature is expected to roll out to all users in the near future.
