Users searching Gemini with Bing are met with a banner ad showcasing Copilot as 'your AI companion,' alongside a chat box for immediate access. This strategy follows similar tactics against Google Chrome, where Microsoft previously placed ads promoting its Edge browser. While such ads may provide relevant results, they reflect a broader strategy that has drawn ire from Google, which has accused Microsoft of using underhanded marketing tricks.
