Microsoft Officially Adds Bing AI Chatbot To Google Chrome
MicrosoftThose of you who want to take Microsoft's Bing AI for a spin are no longer restricted to trying it in the Edge browser or the Bing mobile app. On Friday, Microsoft announced that the Bing Chat tools for individuals and enterprises are now officially available in the Google Chrome browser. This means that Chrome users can browse to the Bing website, open a chat session, choose a conversation style, and seek out information or generate content.
In late July, Bing AI started its journey to non-Microsoft browsers, popping up in Chrome for Windows and Apple's Safari for MacOS, at least for select users. In early August, Microsoft revealed that its AI was heading toward more people and more third-party browsers, promising that Bing and Bing Chat would eventually be available on any modern browser via the website.
Also: Maybe Bing isn't trying to compete with Google after all
On my end, I was able to use Bing AI in Chrome in Windows 10, Windows 11, and MacOS. I also managed to access it in Firefox on one Windows computer but not on another, a sign that Firefox support is slowly rolling out.
Beyond touting Bing AI's support in Chrome, Microsoft announced other enhancements.
Organizations that have set up the new Bing Chat Enterprise can now access it in the Bing mobile app. Users are able to open and sign into the app with their work accounts and then click the Bing Chat button to access the enterprise version of the tool. Plus, people who use the Microsoft SwiftKey keyboard on their iPhones, iPads, or Android devices can now access Bing Chat 30 turns per day without having to sign in to their Microsoft account.
Despite the expansion of Bing AI into other browsers and apps, Microsoft is still trying to steer people to Edge by offering certain benefits, including longer conversations and a history of your chats. Using Bing AI in Chrome, you're also restricted to five messages per chat compared to 30 in Edge. Some browsers, such as Safari, limit you to 2,000 characters per request versus 4,000 in Edge. Plus, a popup window keeps appearing, prompting you to use Edge to chat with Bing.
Also: How to use Bing Chat (and how it's different from ChatGPT)
Otherwise, Bing AI works similarly in other browsers as it does in Edge and the Bing app. Select a conversation style -- More Creative, More Balanced, or More Precise. Write and submit your question or request. In response, Bing answers your question or generates content for you. You can then submit further queries about the same topic or start a new subject. Beyond creating text, Bing can also cook up an image based on your description.

How To Use The New Chrome Sidebar That Puts Apps Like ChatGPT Next To Your Websites

Google Chrome is one of the most popular internet browsers out there. Whether you use Chrome for work or entertainment, Google's browser is a great choice. What makes Chrome and other Chromium-based browsers so compelling is the support for extensions, which are apps specifically built for the browser to improve your surfing experience.
You can have any number of extensions running on top of Chrome, and I'll remind you to always keep track of news concerning Chrome extensions that misbehave. But there's a Chrome feature you might not know about, which lets you use some of these apps — including ChatGPT — in a sidebar right next to your websites.
As Fast Company notes, the Chrome sidebar is a neat productivity feature Google added to the browser back in May, yet almost nobody is talking about it. Here's how Google describes the feature:
Chrome features a built-in side panel that enables users to view more information alongside the main content of a webpage. The Side Panel API allows extensions to display their own UI in the side panel, enabling persistent experiences that complement the user's browsing journey.
And here's what Chrome sidebar apps can offer:
The side panel remains open when navigating between tabs (if set to do so).It can be available only on specific websites.As an extension page, side panels have access to all Chrome APIs.Within Chrome's settings, users can specify which side the panel should be displayed on.
All you have to do to take advantage of the new Chrome sidebar feature is head over to the sidebar icon to the left of your profile icon. The following image will help you locate it:
Once your side panel is activated, you have a menu from where you can choose what to see. For example, you might have your Bookmarks open in the sidebar. Or you might want to see a Journey of your recent web browsing.
But this is also the place where you can run apps that support sidebar functionality. Just ensure that the Chrome extensions you install have support for sidebar functionality. It's something developers must add to their Chrome apps before you can use them inside the side panel.
By the way, you can move the sidebar from the default right side to the left. Just head to Chrome's Settings menu, then Appearance, and then tick the Show on left option under Side Panel.
First, you might want to check if your installed extensions support sidebar action. If they don't, you'll want to look for other apps that do.
To install extensions for the Chrome sidebar, you'll have to go to this link, where the Chrome Web Store resides. Here, you can search for apps that support the side panel or sidebar.
You can then install them and use them inside the sidebar as standalone apps that can improve your overall browsing experience. Fast Company lists some of them.
Like ChatGPT Side Panel, which puts ChatGPT in your sidebar. This is not an official ChatGPT app from OpenIAI. That's something you should always keep in mind when installing generative AI browser extensions and mobile apps; the app you've downloaded might be a third-party solution rather than an official app.
Another useful sidebar app is WebSide. It puts an entire website in your sidebar, which can be useful for social media apps like Reddit, Instagram, Threads, and Twitter/X.
The obvious downside of running apps in your browser's sidebar is that they'll take some real estate and resources. But you can resize the sidebar by simply dragging it to the left and right. You can also hide the sidebar when you need to focus on the actual websites in front of you.
Finally, you should expect similar sidebar action from other browsers. Microsoft Edge is one, and the Chromium-based browser lets you load websites in the sidebar. Arc also offers sidebar features. But, running Chrome extensions in the sidebar is only available to Google's browser for the time being.
