Microsoft Advertising Introduces 3 New Generative AI Solutions

Compared to traditional search methods, users on Chat reportedly take half the time to reach a decision.

Microsoft announced a series of generative AI updates to its search and advertising platforms to redefine how we interact with search engines and online ads.

Slated for a closed beta in early 2024, these ads will collate all relevant data into a concise table to revolutionize retail, travel, and auto advertising.

In addition to the new Conversational Ad experiences, Microsoft also announced its first two partners using the new Ads for Chat API.

Microsoft is introducing new advertising formats designed exclusively for the Bing Chat experience.

Axel Springer’s product Hey_, with 16-17 million visits daily, has also implemented the advertising solution.

Microsoft is conducting tests with a limited number of advertisers before rolling it out for open beta “in the coming months.”

AI Continues To Transform Advertising And Search

Another groundbreaking feature is the Copilot in the Microsoft Advertising Platform.
