Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) shares rose more than 3% Monday as the company began rolling out its ChatGPT functionality to desktop users of its Bing search engine.
Microsoft (MSFT) made the announcement that select users of its desktop programs could use ChatGPT with Bing, but mobile versions for devices running Apple's (AAPL) iOS or Google's (GOOG) Android operating systems weren't ready yet.

According to the Microsoft (MSFT) Windows site, Windows Latest, which covers Microsoft-related topics, Microsoft (MSFT) sent a message to some early tech adopters letting them know about ChatGPT being available for desktop use with Bing, and that the company is "actively working" on a mobile version of the technology.
Both Microsoft (MSFT) and Google (GOOG) have recently thrown their technological and financial weight into AI technologies like ChatGPT. Some analysts have said that Microsoft (MSFT) has taken the early lead in the race for supremacy between the two companies.
