Want fast access to Bing AI? Give Microsoft your browser defaults

The AI-powered chatbot is coming soon to the company's search engine and those eager to give it a spin can sign up for the waitlist. But let's say you're beyond eager to kick Microsoft's GPT tires. You're in an emotional place where no inconvenience is too bothersome, nor no pain too great in exchange for moving further ahead in the line. Microsoft has just the proposal for you, then--you can trade control over your browser (and Windows) defaults for a spot further ahead on the waitlist. It's an additional step you'll have to take after joining the waitlist, one that requires the use of a small Microsoft app to convert your PC to a nonstop Bing party.
