Microsoft has completed infrastructure upgrade and has invited some Bing chat users to test third-party plug-ins

CTOnews.com, August 30 (Xinhua)-- Microsoft announced in May that it would introduce a third-party plug-in for Bing chat (Bing Chat), but then delayed its launch due to upgrading the related infrastructure.

After Microsoft announced on August 14 that 99% of the infrastructure upgrade had been completed, CTOnews.com quoted foreign technology media Windows Latest as saying that Microsoft has now completed the infrastructure upgrade and invited a very small number of users to test new third-party plug-ins.

It is reported that Microsoft has introduced only five plug-ins at present, but in the foreseeable future, Microsoft will further enrich the plug-in ecology to meet the personalized needs of users.

Microsoft said that when chatting with Bing, users can enable up to three plug-ins at the same time. The plug-ins that have been launched are described as follows:

Instacart: you can talk to Bing about your favorite recipes for more in-depth content. This plug-in can identify the food you want to make and provide the relevant production steps.

Kayak: can help you and Bing talk about travel planning, and let the Kayak plug-in responsible for searching relevant flights, hotel accommodation, car travel and other content, and get relevant travel advice.

Klarna (US only): talk to Bing about shopping and get the best price.

OpenTable: get the restaurant recommendation according to your preference and book it for you.

Shop: shopping price comparison tool, access to millions of products, you can chat to compare the prices of products on multiple platforms.

It is reported that the biggest problem encountered in the experience is performance, which often takes a long time to reply, and Microsoft is expected to improve its performance in the coming weeks.
