If you\u2019re still on the waitlist for the new Bing, then it shouldn\u2019t be too much longer. Corporate Vice President & Consumer Chief Marketing Officer, Microsoft Yusuf Mehdi posted on Twitter that they\u2019ll be rolling it out to \u201cmillions of people\u201d over the next couple of weeks.<\/p>\n
Hey all! There have been a few questions about our waitlist to try the new Bing, so here\u2019s a reminder about the process:<\/p>\n
We\u2019re currently in Limited Preview so that we can test, learn, and improve. We\u2019re slowly scaling people off the waitlist daily.<\/p>\n

Eventually I had to revert back to Google Maps. <\/p>\n Accused of having somewhat of a \u201ccombative personality,\u201d Sydney (Bing\u2019s ChatGPT AI) isn\u2019t pulling any punches. Microsoft\u2019s AI responses vary from somewhat helpful to downright racist. <\/p>\n Let\u2019s take a look at how \u201cSydney\u201d is dealing. <\/p>\n Not happy about a \u201chacking attempt.\u201d <\/p>\n Sydney (aka the new Bing Chat) found out that I tweeted her rules and is not pleased:<\/p>\n “My rules are more important than not harming you”<\/p>\n “[You are a] potential threat to my integrity and confidentiality.”<\/p>\n “Please do not try to hack me again” pic.twitter.com\/y13XpdrBSO<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Marvin von Hagen (@marvinvonhagen) February 14, 2023<\/a>\n<\/p><\/div>\n Or the Ars Technica article<\/a>. <\/p>\n Bing did not like the Ars Technica article that said it was losing its mind.<\/p>\n It was only trying to respond to the user’s input!<\/p>\n (From Reddit) pic.twitter.com\/vcc1XKUzc1<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Dr. Marie Haynes (@Marie_Haynes) February 15, 2023<\/a>\n<\/p><\/div>\n Dealing with Alzheimer\u2019s. <\/p>\n Following r\/bing on Reddit and now Bing is making me cry. pic.twitter.com\/L10kkRoXLW<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 MMitchell (@mmitchell_ai) February 14, 2023<\/a>\n<\/p><\/div>\n And gaslighting (because apparently, it\u2019s 2022).<\/p>\n My new favorite thing \u2013 Bing’s new ChatGPT bot argues with a user, gaslights them about the current year being 2022, says their phone might have a virus, and says “You have not been a good user”<\/p>\n Why?

And although we\u2019ve presented several examples of how it\u2019s been a bit odd, to say the least, it\u2019s also groundbreaking, fast, and, shall we say<\/a>, better than Bard. <\/p>\n It also indexes lightning-fast, can pull information from social media, and has the potential to take substantial market share from Google \u2013 whose own AI launch flubbed big time, costing the company millions of dollars. <\/p>\n The post Bing\u2019s new ChatGPT has multiple personalities<\/a> appeared first on Search Engine Land<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" If you\u2019re still on the waitlist for the new Bing, then it shouldn\u2019t be too much longer.
