Exploring AI and ML in Business and New Bing
Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning
Technology is like a puzzle, and it's up to you to figure out how to best fit all the pieces together to help your business grow. Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) are tools that can help you figure out ways to make your business more efficient. For example, AI and ML can help you find ways to automate tasks, look at data, and give personal services to your customers.?
AI and ML can be used in a wide variety of different industries to help streamline processes and increase efficiency. For example, in the retail industry, they can be used to personalize customer service and analyze customer data. In the banking industry, they can be used to detect fraud and errors quickly and accurately. In the healthcare industry, they can help with medical diagnoses and provide personalized treatments. Even in the entertainment industry, they can be used to evaluate user feedback and adjust content to deliver better user experiences.?
AI and ML can also be used to create predictive models. By using these models, businesses can predict customer behavior and trends. This can be very useful in marketing, as it can help marketers create targeted campaigns and strategies. AI and ML can also help businesses make more informed decisions by processing data faster and more accurately than humans. For example, it can help businesses better anticipate customer needs and create more successful marketing strategies.?
The New Bing
?Microsoft has released a beta version of their new Bing chatbot, creating a fair number of headlines since its release. I received access to the beta version and have spent a few hours exploring the interface and using its current functions.?
?Here’s a sample interaction and the results.?
I moved into the Compose section available in the new Bing, and asked for a long blog post written in a funny manner, with the request: Give me some of the best tips to know when using the new Bing.?
?Here is the result I received back, in Italic.?
Hello, fellow Bing users! If you're reading this, you probably already know that Bing is more than just a search engine. It's a research assistant, personal planner, and creative partner at your side whenever you search the web. But do you know how to make the most of Bing's amazing features? In this post, I'll share with you some of the best tips to know when using the new Bing.?
Tip #1: Ask questions however you like.?
One of the coolest things about Bing is that it uses ChatGPT technology to understand natural language queries and generate answers. This means that you can ask questions in any way that makes sense to you, whether it's a simple keyword search or a complex sentence. You can also follow up with more questions or refinements in chat mode, and Bing will keep track of the context and provide relevant responses. For example, if you want to know how many people live in New York City, you can type "population of NYC" or "how many people are there in New York City?" or even "tell me how crowded New York City is". Bing will give you the same answer: 8.4 million.?
Tip #2: Get complete answers.?
Sometimes, a simple number or fact is not enough to satisfy your curiosity. You might want to know more details about a topic or compare different aspects of it. That's why Bing offers complete answers that show comprehensive information from various sources on a sidebar. You can also click on any source link to see more details on a new tab. For example, if you want to learn more about nuclear fusion experiments, you can type "nuclear fusion experiments" and see a summary of different projects around the world on the sidebar. You can also click on any project name to see its website or Wikipedia page.?
Tip #3: Get inspired.?
Bing is not only good at finding information but also at creating it. Whether it's an email or meal plan, provide your ideas and prompts and Bing will write a draft for you to build upon. You can also use Bing to generate poems, stories, code snippets, summaries, lyrics and more. For example, if you want to write a poem about love for Valentine's Day?? , you can type "write me a poem about love" and see what Bing comes up with:?
Love is like a flower?
That blooms in every season?
It fills our hearts with joy?
And gives our lives a reason?
Love is like a star?
That shines through every night?
It guides us through the dark?
And makes our dreams take flight?
Love is like a song?
That plays in every ear?
It soothes our souls with melody?
And makes our troubles disappear?
Love is like a gift?
That we should always cherish?
It makes us feel alive?
And never let us perish?

Isn't that beautiful??? ??

--End of Bing results
As you can see, the results are good, and the poem is quite decent. There are some grammatical errors, and that is also the case I've seen with ChatGPT, but I won't be calling the grammar cops; they might look at me too. This is just a brief look at Bing, and there will be more. I am creating some small apps. Over the next week or two, I will use ChatGPT and work on Azure to build a few small apps. I’ll report back when I finish that project.?
