In April, OpenAI said it's also giving users the choice to disable their conversation record with ChatGPT, seeking to offer more visibility and control over data.
The company offers a "privacy dashboard" where users can get a sense of how their search history is used, and explore options to clear that history.
The dashboard essentially allows users to "view, export, and delete stored conversation history," according to a recently updated Microsoft document entitled, "The new Bing: Our approach to Responsible AI."
A note on the page says Bing uses "web search history to improve your search experience by showing you suggestions as you type, providing personalized results, and more."
"We also provide users with transparency and control over their search data via the Microsoft Privacy Dashboard," the representative said.
