What is Microsoft Bing?

Bing is a web search engine that combines traditional search with integrated AI capabilities. You can search the web, get AI-powered summaries of topics, chat with Copilot to answer questions conversationally, and generate images without switching tools. Bing includes shopping results, news aggregation, and maps, plus integration with Microsoft 365 so you can search your own documents and emails. It's free for basic use, with a paid Copilot Pro tier for higher limits and priority features. Bing works on web browsers, mobile apps, and as a browser extension, making it useful whether you want traditional search results or AI-assisted research and content creation.
