Microsoft continues to lead the way in AI technology, aiming to provide a copilot for every individual in both their personal and professional lives.

Earlier this year, Microsoft introduced AI-powered Bing– a groundbreaking reinvention of search with comprehensive answers, interactive chat capabilities, and features to fuel creativity.

Additionally, they introduced Microsoft 365 Copilot, a game-changing approach to work that seamlessly integrates large language models (LLMs) with Microsoft Graph and Microsoft 365 apps, enabling a seamless workflow using natural language.

Today, at Microsoft Inspire, three major announcements took center stage– the expansion of Bing with Bing Chat Enterprise, the pricing details for Microsoft 365 Copilot for commercial customers, and the launch of Visual Search in Chat.

Each of these initiatives promises to enhance productivity, streamline workflows, and bring new levels of creativity to the workplace.

Introducing Bing Chat Enterprise: AI-Powered Chat for Work

As organizations embrace AI tools to unlock creativity and productivity, they are concerned about protecting sensitive business data. Bing Chat Enterprise provides AI-powered chat for work, ensuring commercial data protection. The chat data remains within the organization and is not saved, keeping it safe and secure.

Moreover, Microsoft has no access to view the data, and it is not used to train the models. This commitment to data privacy instills confidence in employees who can now access better answers, enhance efficiency, and access novel ways to express their creativity using Bing Chat Enterprise.

Notably, Bing Chat Enterprise shares the same principles as Bing Chat, offering complete, verifiable answers with citations, along with visual answers that include graphs, charts, and images.

This secure and reliable chat experience is already available in preview mode for Microsoft 365 E3, E5, Business Standard, and Business Premium customers. In the future, it will also be offered as a stand-alone service for $5 per user per month.

How will it help enterprises?

1. Protects sensitive business data: Bing Chat Enterprise ensures that your valuable information remains within your organization, eliminating the risk of data breaches.

2. Enhances productivity: By providing complete answers and valuable insights, Bing Chat Enterprise enables employees to work more efficiently and make informed decisions.

3. Sparks creativity: With access to a vast array of information, employees can find inspiration and explore new ideas to fuel their creativity.
