Can Bing read a PDF?
In case you didn't know, Bing can access, read, summarize, or otherwise manipulate info from a PDF or any other document in the browser window, or any webpage as well. But you have to use Bing Chat from the Edge sidebar. Open up a PDF in your browser (it doesn't even have to be online, it can be a local file).
How do I summarize a PDF in Bing chat?
Type "summarize this PDF" and Bing Chat will summarize the document. You can also ask it to give you bullet points of major takeaways, etc. (If it is the first time doing this it will also ask you for permission to access the webpage or document.)
How does Bing chat work?
You can see how it works in the tweet above. There’s a new ‘Ask Bing Chat’ button present in the PDF reader, and if you click it, you’ll get the Bing AI popping up in the sidebar (on the right). It’s then possible to start a chat relating to the PDF which is currently open in Edge, carried out in the usual way from there.
How does Bing AI work in edge?
Here’s how it works. Microsoft is sneaking another tendril of its Bing AI into Edge, with the chatbot getting integrated with the browser’s PDF reader functionality, at least in testing. This was spotted by Twitter-based leaker Leopeva64, who has uncovered a lot of material relating to Edge in recent times.
