Along with introducing an update to the chat limits on Bing's ChatGPT, Microsoft also provided insights into the workings of its latest search engine, new Bing. The underlying technology for new Bing is driven by Microsoft's recently developed AI model, which is officially known as Prometheus.
In a blog post, Microsoft announced that they have created a novel AI model called Prometheus, which merges Bing's extensive index, ranking, and answer results with OpenAI's advanced GPT models to facilitate creative reasoning.
Prometheus operates by using Bing and GPT to produce a sequence of internal queries through Bing Orchestrator. The model then delivers an accurate and in-depth response to the user's inquiry while taking into account the context of the conversation, all within milliseconds.
Selecting the relevant internal queries and utilizing the corresponding Bing search results is a crucial component of Prometheus. This process allows the model to access up-to-date information and reduce inaccuracies. In other words, the model grounds itself in the data provided by Bing by using its reasoning skills, aided by the Bing Orchestrator. A diagram is included in the post to provide an overview of how Prometheus functions.

Furthermore, Prometheus attaches relevant Bing search results to the Chat answer, including weather, stock, sports, and news. By integrating citations into sentences in the Chat answer, users can easily click on the sources to verify the information.
Jordi Ribas, Corporate Vice President of Search & AI at Microsoft, stated in the blog post that his team faced challenges while developing the ideal Bing search product, and they ultimately designed a new Bing UX that incorporates both Search and Chat in a single interface to provide a unified experience for users. This was because certain queries would perform better in the classical or Search mode, while others would do better in a conversational or Chat mode.
