PCWorld notes that the Copilot produced about 370 words of copy with long selected.Microsoft Edge is a new and lightweight internet browser developed by Microsoft Corporation as a replacement for Internet Explorer – the venerable browser that was a part of Windows operating systems since 1995. Some tone settings include funny, informative, and professional, while the length parameter has long, medium, and short settings.

After entering a topic or prompt for Bing to write about, users can set several parameters to tailor the material's scope and tone. Users can leverage it to generate a variety of content. If you want a brief overview, you are better off asking for it in the Chat tab.Īrguably more useful is Copilot's Compose tab.

Its usefulness depends on whether you are looking for an actual summary of the page's content or want leads to external sites talking more about it. It takes various keywords from the content and provides links and related information. The Insights tab is like a shortcut to asking Bing to summarize a webpage, but it's messy. Of course, remember that sometimes the chatbot is way off the mark, such as when it embarrassingly gave The New York Times terrible advice on pronouncing several Spanish words. It's like having Bing Chat right at your fingertips rather than navigating to its website. Ask a question, and get a plain-language answer. With the settings out of the way, you can start using Copilot. For example, permitting Bing to parse the page allows it to summarize its content. Allowing this is optional, but if you deny permission, you will miss out on some of the advantages of Copilot. You should also permit Bing to read the page you are visiting. Before you can begin, you need to set the bot to one of three options-"precise," "creative," or "balanced." The settings are self-explanatory and will affect Bing's responses to your queries accordingly. To open the Copilot sidebar, click the Bing Chat logo in the upper right corner of Edge. Otherwise, you will not see these features in your browser. If you already have access to it, you're good to go. It is powered by Bing Chat, which Microsoft still hasn't fully opened to the public. What just happened? Microsoft gave its Edge browser a new tool today called "Copilot." Copilot is an AI assistant in Edge's righthand sidebar.
