MICROSOFT, an American multinational technology company that has earlier announced that it will roll out AI-powered capabilities to the Swiftkey app, which is a third-party keyboard that directly competes with Google’s GBoard has now officially fulfilled its promise.

The company has introduced the AI-powered Bing capabilities to the SwiftKey application which will allow users to chat with the AI chatbot directly from their mobile keyboard and search for things without having to switch between apps.

Further, the company has announced that it had integrated the artificial intelligence functionalities that would be working in three ways including the search, chat, and tone.

"Bing integrates into three ways: search, chat, and tone. The update is now available. When the update is complete, the Bing icon will appear above the keyboard. From there, you can choose whether to use Chat, Tone, or Search," Microsoft explained in a blog post.

Further, the company taking each way explained how it would work for the users.

1. Chat:

Users can access the new Bing while on the go through the Chat feature for more in-depth searches, and through the Tone feature, which uses AI to adapt users' in-progress text to any situation, users can communicate more effectively.

2. Tone And Search:

Additionally, users will be able to quickly search the web from their keyboard without switching apps with the help of Search functionality.

All the places where the new Bing is available can now use Search, but in order to access Tone and Chat, a user must sign into Microsoft Account, which has been authorised to access the new Bing preview, according to the company.

Meanwhile, the company has also introduced the translator functionality in the Bing application for mobile users which will offer masculine and feminine translations when translating from English to Spanish, French, or Italian.

The ability to select the gendered translation that best fits their context will be provided by this feature, which is beneficial for well-intentioned speakers of all proficiency levels.

The company also made the new Bing available to Skype users, enabling group chats with the new Bing for everyone. The preview can only be accessed by one member of the group at a time.
