On the other hand, there are those who worry about the cost, privacy, or security of using the new tech. The bottom line is that a lot of organizations are missing out on the benefits of AI. In a time where innovation and technological advancements can significantly influence your success, that could mean your business is getting left behind.

4. Is Bing Chat secure?

The short answer is that it's more secure than alternative generative AI models. Bing Chat Enterprise protects user and business data by not saving or sharing chat data outside the organization. Microsoft has no eyes-on access to the chat data. Not to mention, your chat data is not used to train the underlying models. Users can chat with Bing Chat Enterprise with the confidence that their data is protected and will not leak outside the organization.
