Microsoft adjusts Bing Chat quotas, with 8 questions per single session and 120 questions per day

Previously, Microsoft had increased the single-session quota for Bing Chat from 6 to 8, but yesterday, inexplicably, they reduced it back to 6, causing complaints from numerous netizens.

Today, the head of Microsoft’s advertising and online services department announced that they have readjusted the quota and apologized to users for yesterday’s reduction.

The new quota allows for 8 questions per chat session and increases the daily quota from 100 to 120 questions per Microsoft account (with permissions already granted). Microsoft may continue to increase the quota to meet the demands of more users in the future.

According to Microsoft’s statistics, a daily limit of 100 questions can already meet the demands of most users. Any usage of Bing Chat for data collection beyond that is not considered normal usage and is not supported.

In addition, while Bing Chat can currently handle long documents and web pages, it appears that it can only successfully process the first page, with subsequent content causing “hallucinations.”

Microsoft acknowledges this issue and its technical team is working to resolve it, with the aim of solving the problem by next week.

Finally, a netizen inquired whether Bing Chat can listen to video audio tracks, but this feature is not yet supported. Microsoft emphasized that Bing Chat currently only supports text and does not support audio collection for transcription output.
