Spotlight offers users summaries of the latest news stories and topics, along with related posts. The feature aggregates news from various sources and websites, summarizing the main content to give users an overview of the news they might want to explore further.
Microsoft deploys Bing Spotlight feature.
In terms of functionality, Bing actively monitors a large volume of queries and articles, identifying developing stories over time. The company notes that this involves various signals such as queries, browser logs, and document signals from publishers, including the number of publishers on the same topic, the story, the perspective, and the prominence of the story on their website.
Additionally, Microsoft emphasizes controversial topics, stating that the Perspectives module will display different viewpoints from high-quality sources and accurately label opinions and comments.
The Back End of Bing will utilize Deep Learning algorithms and the Web Graph from a variety of websites to identify top domestic news sources based on categories, queries, or articles.
This feature bears resemblance to the Full Coverage feature provided in Google News. However, the feature is exclusively available for Bing users, utilizing the tool to search for information across various topics to gain an overview of subjects they are interested in.
Spotlight is now available on Bing for both desktop and mobile platforms, currently limited to users in the United States. To experience this new feature, users can search for primary topics on bing.com.
