<p>Several days ago Microsoft announced its new Bing Search engine powered by AI.</p>

<p>The company opened a waitlist and promised to bring the new Bing version to millions of people in the following weeks.</p>
<p>According to Yusuf Mehdi, a corporate vice president at Microsoft, the company received over 1 million sign-ups for the new AI-powered Bing search in just 48 hours.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">We&#39;re humbled and energized by the number of people who want to test-drive the new AI-powered Bing! In 48 hours, more than 1 million people have joined the waitlist for our preview.

<p>Apart from the traditional search offering, the new AI-powered Bing chat will provide 1000 characters of space to build complex queries which Bing will then try to answer using a special search-optimized version of OpenAI&#8217;s ChatGPT. Bing chat should be based on the new, still unreleased ChatGPT4.</p>
<p>It appears that Microsoft has already activated the new home page, but still preparing to add all the users from the waitlist, even though this shouldn&#8217;t take long now.</p>
