ChatGPT helps Bing have 100 million daily users, but it’s still just ‘salt out of the sea’ compared to Google

Tram Ho

Microsoft has just released a statement that their Bing search engine has hit a new record, now having 100 million daily active users. The news comes via a Microsoft Bing blog post, and the observations that show the difference come from the AI ​​chatbot engine powered by ChatGPT.

Microsoft’s corporate vice president, Yusuf Mehdi, said about a third of Bing users are new users, and engagement depends on existing users. Thanks to the launch of Bing AI, many users were curious to test out ChatGPT-style features on Bing and Microsoft’s Edge web browser.

“As more and more people adopt the new Bing and Edge, we’re seeing the process of trying out and adopting new capabilities to prove the value of the integrated Search and Chat experience,” said Mehdi. know.

Either way, Microsoft acknowledges the obvious fact that Bing is still far from catching up with Google.

“100 million is a remarkable number, but we are fully aware that we are still a small company with a small market share. But it’s great to join the dance,” the company representative said.

It’s clear by 2022 data that Google processes more than 99,000 searches per second. This equates to more than 8.5 billion searches per day. On average, an Internet user will perform 3 to 4 searches on Google per day, so the number of Google users per day will fall to about 2.1 billion people.

Earlier in February, Microsoft reminded everyone that “Bing still exists” and announced a new version of its search engine powered by OpenAI’s general artificial intelligence. It was a bold move to win over users of Google, which dominated the market. But the move also shows that Bing doesn’t have much to lose. And fortunately the numbers show that their decision seems to have paid off.

Of course, Bing AI is more than just a chatbot. It’s just a vehicle for Bing to challenge Google, and one that Microsoft hopes to use in its desire to quickly achieve positive results.

But no one is sure if this situation will last or not. Because curious people will soon disappear and only users who see the usefulness of Bing will really stay.

Therefore, the initial figures are not really usable as a measure of the influence of ‘New Bing’. If growth is sustained and AI honed and improved over the next few months, we could come back and talk about a new wave of adoption for Bing.
