Like Google, Microsoft has now started to show its Copilot AI results in the Bing search engine. Now, if you open the Bing search engine from any web browser and search for a term, you will likely see the AI response first.
The web results are still there, but the AI responses are shown at the top, pushing down the results. This could annoy many users because the responses delivered by AI chatbots are usually very slow and yield inaccurate results.
Can you turn off Copilot AI responses on Bing?
Microsoft is well aware that AI responses can be inaccurate and force users to move to a different search engine.
This is why it provided users an option to turn off Copilot AI responses from its Bing search engine.
So, if you’re not a fan of Copilot AI responses appearing on the Bing Search engine, you can turn them off in easy steps.
