Microsoft's Bing data cut-off threat to rival AI chatbots.

Microsoft is reportedly threatening to cut-off two Bing-powered search engines from using its data if companies don't stop using it for their own chatbots. While Microsoft is fine with how Bing is used currently, the company draws the line at "using Bing’s search index as fodder for AI chatbots." Several search engines rely on Bing, including DuckDuckGo, Yahoo, and You.com. The move comes as tech giants fight for supremacy in the emerging field of AI chatbots.
