Windows Copilot and Bing Chat will soon offer personalised answers | Technology News
Microsoft Copilot, the AI chatbot that powers both Bing Chat and Windows Copilot will reportedly get a new feature that allows the generative AI to remember your previous conversations and offer personalized replies.
According to a recent report by WindowsLatest, Microsoft is testing a new toggle for Bing Chat that lets it remember context from past conversations and offers personalised results. For example, if you ask Bing Chat about language-learning apps and have previously told the chatbot that you want to learn French, it will then refer to that query and show you a list of apps or platforms that will help you learn French.
The upcoming functionality is really useful if you often use Microsoft Copilot to search for new things or ask several questions. As it turns out, the new Personalisation toggle is turned off by default and is currently only available to a handful of users. The screenshot in the report also shows that Microsoft has added a new ‘Chat’ setting in Bing which lets users turn off chat history and personalization.

The tech giant is also working on another feature called ‘Search on Bing’ that appears whenever you hover over a message in a chat. The Bing button appears to the top right of the message and as the name suggests, lets users search the query using Bing. This is useful if Microsoft Copilot is unable to help with your query.
However, it is still unclear if and when Microsoft plans to roll out chat personalization and search on Bing to everyone, so you might have to wait a while before the options appear for your account.
