Microsoft continues Bing blow-out with mobile, Skype, and voice access - The Verge

In today's announcement, Microsoft seems to be stressing the social and creative aspects of Bing much more. This isn't a bad thing, as these functions are better suited to the limitations of AI language models. In the Skype blog post, for example, the company highlights Bing as "a great tool for generating ideas and inspiration," with screenshots of the chatbot writing poetry. There's only a passing mention of using Bing to find out about the news; a task for which the chatbot is ill-suited, making frequent factual errors.
