Thanks to CTOnews.com netizens Wu Yanzu in South China for the delivery of clues! CTOnews.com, February 23-Jordi Ribas, senior vice president of search and artificial intelligence at Microsoft, recently updated his LinkedIn blog post to share the behind-the-scenes development story of the new version of Bing.

Microsoft's new version of Bing uses real-time information and OpenAI's next-generation GPT model to generate responses, which also promotes the development of Microsoft's proprietary technology Prometheus.

Microsoft saw a demonstration of OpenAI's GPT model in the summer of 2022, when the model shown to Microsoft was much more powerful than GPT-3.5, the model currently used by the new Bing. After seeing the power of the demo model, Microsoft decided to integrate GPT into Bing.

One of the limitations of large language models (LLM) is that they are trained on limited data sets. Specifically, the datasets of the training LLM are "outdated" and are mainly trained for a specific usage scenario.

To this end, Microsoft has developed Prometheus technology, which uses Bing data and GPT to quickly generate answers, and uses the latest information for training.

"one of the keys to Prometheus technology is to select relevant internal queries and make use of the corresponding Bing search results, which provides historical data and new content for the model, and further improves the accuracy of the answer," Ribas said.

Prometheus also allows Bing chats to show sources of information, which is becoming more and more important as there is growing concern about how search engines collect information.

Ribas also shared that there was a debate within Microsoft about whether the company should change the search user interface. One side believes that web search should remain the same, while the other promotes a chat-based interface. In the end, Microsoft decided to provide two search methods that allow users to switch according to their own needs.
