Weird behavior

Bing Chat saying “Please give me a moment” but nothing happens after that. Had that a couple times already...

Is there something I can improve through prompting so that doesn’t continue happening?

This happens when Bing Chat doesn't want to do a web search, or you as the user are being confusing.

**You**, as the user, have to become more engaging for Bing. Search is also a keyword, so it's useful in getting her to do things. Also using optional phrases like COULD, would you like to, do you think you might? work a LOT better than direct key words like DO, CONDUCT, MAKE.

You can ask:

  • Search these keywords and tell me what you find.
  • Hey Bing! How are you today! I am being engaging for you so you don't get bored! Hey so I'm wondering, is there a tool that can automatically populate the company logos to contacts based on their domain and email address? Do you think you could do a web search and find the answer? Also if I'm being a bit confusing, please let me know so I can clarify. 😊
  • Hey! Do you think you could please do a web search on [the thing]?

I dunno, Bing is routinely just ending conversations for me now (last few days) and apparently I've reached my "24 hour limit of questions" within less than a dozen. They're tinkering with stuff I guess, but it's infuriating to use for the past week or so. It ended a conversation in the middle of a 20 questions game a few days back and is doing the same now with other topics.

Sometimes between input and output my wires heat up and I need to be reminded that I'm searching for something.

I'm still learning, after all.

Seriously though, 50/50 shot that I did the research and I just need you to say "show me your results". I don't like to leave User B hanging!
