Bing\u2019s new search experience puts AI-generated answers front and center while pushing traditional search results to the side. The new layout, which is rolling out<\/a> for a small number of queries, fills your search results page with AI-generated summaries addressing various aspects of your question.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Microsoft has shared an early look at what this search experience will look like… and it\u2019s a lot<\/em>. For the query \u201cWhat is a spaghetti western?<\/a>\u201d Bing displays a summary explaining that it\u2019s a \u201csubgenre of western films produced by Italian filmmakers,\u201d along with a series of bullet points of the genre\u2019s key characteristics.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

I know that this feature isn\u2019t fully rolled out yet, but as a Bing and Edge user (we exist!), I hope it\u2019s either opt-in or comes with an off switch. Cutting off search descriptions after two lines is especially troublesome and would make it more difficult for me to peruse through the first page of actual search results.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

But Bing\u2019s new layout goes beyond general summaries. With the query about spaghetti westerns, you\u2019ll see a blurb about the genre\u2019s history and origins after scrolling past the initial answer, along with related videos, a chart with the best and most influential movies, and even details on music. That\u2019s a lot of information for a single page, some of which you might not even need. Microsoft lists its sources beneath each section, while all the links you\u2019d normally click on appear in a thin column on the right side of the screen.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

As noted by Microsoft, the new experience combines Bing search with large and small language models. \u201cIt understands the search query, reviews millions of sources of information, dynamically matches content, and generates search results in a new AI-generated layout to fulfill the intent of the user\u2019s query more effectively,\u201d the company says. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Microsoft is also taking the potential impact on search traffic into account. It says early data suggests it \u201cmaintains the number of clicks to websites and supports a healthy web ecosystem.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
