Microsoft is testing replacing or renaming the Copilot search tab in Bing Search with the name AI Mode. AI Mode is the name Google uses for its AI search engine, Bing uses Copilot Search, but Microsoft is testing using Google's name here.

Now Bing is replacing Copilot Search with AI Mode in the search tab - here is a screenshot:
Here is what it normally looks like:
This was first covered by Sachin Patel who posted on X and SEW.
Forum discussion at X.
Update: It may be fully rolled out:
↗️ Bing AI Mode appears to be fully rolled out.
I checked it across different browsers, and the dedicated AI Mode tab was consistently visible.
Also adding snap from mobile device.
