Bing Chat Gets Visual Search

Bing Chat Now Supports Visual Search

A month ago we saw Bing Chat testing visual search. Well, now it is available for all who want to snap a photo or upload an image to Bing Chat. Bing announced, “Visual Search in Chat lets anyone upload images and search the web for related content. Take a picture, or use one you find elsewhere, and prompt Bing to tell you about it Bing can understand the context of an image, interpret it, and answer questions about it.”

Here is a GIF of it in action:

Here is how it looks on mobile search:

Visual Search in Bing Chat is rolling out now on desktop and mobile! Just take or upload a photo and ask Bing to tell you about it. Forgot which of your adapters works for your upcoming trip? Snap a pic and ask Bing Chat. pic.twitter.com/gmbq33oqiA

Just last week, Google Bard added Google Lens, which is similar, if not the same, as this.

Bing Chat also rolled out multimodal/Image understanding everywhere, which may be part of this:

OK, we have finally rolled out the Multimodal/Image understanding everywhere (well, almost – the rollout will fully be done tomorrow, but 99% today). pic.twitter.com/CIuGIXQNSK

And does this use Bing reverse image search:

Thats great, btw – does it use only the model to recognize the image or sometimes run a “normal” reverse image search just to save some energy and given people just reupload some picture from the internet

This is a nice add for any search engine, including these AI assistants.
