Microsoft's Bing AI Chat has consistently been one of the best ChatGPT alternatives that people have used. Armed with OpenAI's new GPT-4 language model, the AI search engine-cum-chatbot can do a lot in a short amount of time. But in an effort to make things even better, Microsoft has announced a series of changes that bolster the bot with even more functionality. Keep reading as we discuss all the big changes.

Although it was already packed with great power, one of the downsides of Bing Chat was that it was locked behind a waiting list. But that has now changed as Microsoft Bing AI has moved from Limited to Open Preview. This means that everyone can now access Bing AI Chat without any limits. However, note that you still need the Microsoft Edge browser to access Bing's chat mode. But we have already shared a solution to use Bing AI Chat in any browser.

So those who do not have access to the waiting list can now start using Bing AI without any problems. All you need to do is create a Microsoft account and get started.

If you read about ChatGPT getting plugins, then you already know the power they can bring. These plugins can add more power to the bot by pulling in information from other sources. Well, Microsoft has latched onto the former's success and is now announcing future support for third-party plugins (called Bing Actions) in the chat experience. This opens up a lot of possibilities as developers will now be able to build feature-centric plugins that intelligently power Bing.
