Episode notes

Bing's search box is now just much bigger. You can enter up to a thousand characters of text and you can sign up for that waitlist now. Microsoft has said they are going to limit the number of queries that you can do, but they have not said what those limits will be. The second thing is in this Microsoft Edge browser which I think gets more interesting.

Microsoft’s release of a ChatGPT-powered Bing signifies a new era in search. Then, a disastrous preview of Bard — Google’s answer to ChatGPT — caused the company’s stocks to slide 7 percent. The A.I. arms race is on.

Plus: What “Nothing, Forever,” the 24/7, A.I.-generated “Seinfeld” parody, says about bias in A.I.

On today’s episode:

Sam Altman is the chief executive of OpenAI.
