In August this year, Microsoft launched an internal beta test of the Bing Chat plug-in for a small number of users. However, due to performance or quality issues, this feature was quietly offline some time ago.
According to Windows Latest, the problem has been resolved and Bing Chat has restarted testing the third-party plug-in function. Some users have seen this function again last weekend.
Many users have reported that Bing Chat on both desktop and mobile devices has updated support for third-party plug-ins, but this feature only appears in Microsoft Edge Canary, and only five plug-ins are supported in the first batch. A list of plug-ins as follows :
Instacart: This add-on lets you discover recipes and ingredients and interact with "answers" using Bing Chat.
Kayak: This is a plug-in that helps users easily book flights and can be used to plan travel. However, Microsoft is currently unable to place orders directly and can only provide suggestions.
Klarna: Price comparison plug-in that allows US users to compare product price history and multi-platform prices.
OpenTable: Plugin for restaurant reservations.
Shop: Plugin for comparing prices and buying products.Additionally, these plugins now run significantly faster. Microsoft previously revealed that its Bing Chat had received infrastructure upgrades to its AI capabilities, which seemed to explain why the plug-in is now performing better.
Microsoft also says that you can only use up to three plug-ins in a conversation. If you want to switch between plugins, you need to open a new conversation topic.
It is worth mentioning that Bing Chat may support more plug-ins in the future. Microsoft has previously said that the new ChatGPT plug-in will be gradually added to Bing, which means you will be able to experience more third-party plug-ins at some point in the future.
