Microsoft Bing's CEO, Mikhail Parakhin said on Twitter that Bing Chat outperforms raw GPT-4 but it comes at an expense. He said, "It is outperforming according to our measurements," when someone said they think Bing Chat beats out GPT-4 from OpenAI.

Keep in mind, Bing uses GPT-4 from OpenAI, but as Mikhail Parakhin explained and as many of you already know, "Bing is using retrieval-augmented inference." He adds that doing all this is much more expensive, he said "Yes, we have that offering, it ends up pretty pricey, as it requires multiple model calls + Search calls, so far it’s been only used by a few companies."

Here are those tweets:

I do think most people would find Bing Chat's results and responses better than ChatGPT for many questions.
