Thanks to CTOnews.com netizens ThinkBou, Brother Black fly's left hand, iTechSTUDIO, Wa pure water clues delivery! According to reports in the morning of February 8, Beijing time, Microsoft plans to release software later this year to help big companies develop chat robots similar to ChatGPT.

Since startup OpenAI released ChatGPT to the public, it has become a phenomenal product. Because it can answer the ever-changing questions in different styles, it has left a deep impression on people. UBS analysts said last week that based on the current momentum, the service will gain 100 million monthly active users faster than short video app TikTok.

Microsoft plans to take full advantage of this attention in a variety of ways. In addition to providing cloud computing backend for ChatGPT, the company announced in January that it had invested $1 billion in OpenAI. Microsoft has also been trying to integrate OpenAI technology into its products, announcing on Tuesday that it will integrate ChatGPT-like technology into Bing's search engine and Edge browser.

In addition, Microsoft is preparing to release a technology to companies, schools and governments to help them develop their own chat robots with ChatGPT, according to people familiar with the matter. Microsoft hopes to help customers launch new chat robots, or use the new technology to modify their current chat robots, such as recommending responses to call center customer service during interaction with customers.

The underlying artificial intelligence model of ChatGPT cannot answer anything that will happen after 2021 because it has not been trained with this information. But people familiar with the matter said Microsoft was prepared to include the latest information in its commercial ChatGPT service.

Like the new Bing and Edge, the service will also provide specific sources of citation, according to people familiar with the matter. However, the current public version of ChatGPT does not provide reference sources.

For OpenAI, the operating cost of ChatGPT is not low. Sam Altman, the company's CEO, said in a tweet in December that the cost of each chat was about "a few cents", which estimated that it would cost millions of dollars to serve 100m users a month. Like other cloud infrastructure providers, Microsoft cares a lot about customers' spending, so it may not want customers to end up spending too much on the service than expected. To that end, Microsoft plans to provide a tool to help customers measure and limit spending.

In addition, Microsoft is also exploring allowing corporate customers to display a customized message before interacting with customers using a chat robot, similar to the new version of Bing, which first displays a welcome screen telling users that it can answer complex questions and provide relevant information.

Microsoft also hopes to provide customers with channels to upload their own data, adjust the voice of chatbots and allow customers to replace Microsoft and OpenAI brands, according to people familiar with the matter.

Microsoft has yet to comment.

At the same time, Google, Microsoft's old rival, is using its own technology to take similar measures. On Monday, Google's parent company Alphabet released an artificial intelligence chat robot called Bard. CEO Sandal Pichai (Sundar Pichai) also told employees in an internal email that they will soon invite developers and companies to test an API (application programming interface) that can access the underlying technology LaMDA.
