Bing Releases Intelligent Question-Answering Feature to 100+ Languages

As a user, you ask a question (e.g., “what are the benefits of eating apricots”) and can get the answer directly (e.g., info about health and nutrition benefits of apricots) at the top of the page without further need to search for relevant content by yourself, that is Intelligent question-answering. The feature aims to direct users to the most concise and precise answers from web documents, thus saving users time and efforts.

English-language question answering from web has been enabled on Bing for several years, and another dozen of languages, like French and German, have been added within the last year. Recently, Bing expanded its intelligent question-answering feature to more than 100 languages, making AI and Bing itself more inclusive and accessible. What is amazing is this is achieved by using a language agnostic approach. In other words, the AI model generating the intelligent question-answering in Urdu is the same one generating the intelligent question-answering in Romanian.

Here are search results in different languages for “what are the benefits of eating apricots”:
Example 1 – { what are the benefits of eating apricots }
Example 2 – { hva er fordelene med å spise aprikoser }
