Microsoft Bing AI chatbot is now capable of displaying difficult mathematical formulas thus making it a useful tool for learning math concepts. This has happened when tech giants and tech companies are competing to stay ahead of the race as competition centering AI (Artificial Intelligence) is getting intensified.
It was earlier reported that Google Bard AI can write, explain and debug code in more than 20 programing languages. Meanwhile, Microsoft has also made noteworthy progress in this direction by announcing that Bing Chatbot now supports LaTeX. In the announcement, Microsoft said: “We released LaTeX markup support, enabling Bing to chat to correctly display intricate mathematical expressions”.
In a blog post, the company said, “This makes Bing chat an even more useful tool for learning math concepts or writing technical research papers”.
It may be mentioned here that LaTeX is a markup language for creating scientific publications and documents with intricate mathematical equations and symbols. This update makes it possible for Bing Chat to display equations and symbols in the correct format, which was previously a challenge for the artificial intelligence bot. Students and researchers who use Bing Chat to get answers will especially benefit from this new feature. It will furnish them with additional precise and effective reactions, saving them time and effort in their studies.
Bing AI has received several other significant updates in addition to the Bing Chat update. The issue that caused Bing to unnecessarily end conversations have been fixed by Microsoft. “We’ve heard your input that messages would here and there set off Bing to pointlessly end discussions (for example “Please accept my apologies however I don’t want to proceed with this discussion.” or “It may be time to move on to a different subject.”) This should now happen less often than it did before, and the company says that it is still looking into cases where it does.
