Microsoft Bringing Bots To Bing Searches

Bots are being added to the Bing search engine to make the results more useful. Details haven't been released by Microsoft, but a session at its Build conference (May 10 - 12) is titled "Chatbots on Bing.com."
That session will allow developers to "learn how chatbots enhance the Bing experience and how you can add your own custom bots to Bing.com." We'll have to wait until Build to learn about the whole program.
Bots are reportedly going to be placed at the bottom of the screen. They can be used by Microsoft, businesses, and third-party developers to enhance the search engine. One of the first bots is an "Infobot" that pulls data from Wikipedia.
