According to news on August 23, Microsoft Edge browser will soon introduce a highly anticipated new feature designed to make users’ search experience on the web more convenient and efficient. The innovative feature, called Smart Search, will leverage artificial intelligence to help users easily find the right word or phrase, even if the query is misspelled or incomplete.
It is understood that this smart search feature has made its debut in the Canary test version of the Edge browser. According to the latest roadmap of Microsoft 365, this feature is expected to be gradually rolled out to all users starting from September next year, bringing a more convenient search experience to the majority of users.
Microsoft’s introduction of the intelligent search function of the Edge browser shows that by integrating artificial intelligence technology, it will become easier than ever for users to search for words or phrases on the web. Even if a user makes a spelling mistake during their search, the system will intelligently present relevant matches and suggestions to ensure that the user can easily find what they are looking for. When searching, users simply select from suggested links to quickly locate the target word or phrase.
Microsoft also used Wikipedia pages as an example to demonstrate the excellent effect of the intelligent search function. Not only that, in addition to smart search, the Edge browser will also introduce two practical filtering options, which are already available in Edge. Implemented in version 116. These filtering options allow users to perform whole-word matching and case-sensitive searches. When the Match Case option is enabled, search criteria including accented characters will be taken into account. Users can activate this filter by simply toggling the "Match Case" switch in "Show Search Options".
It is worth noting that if users can’t wait to experience the smart search function, they can go to Microsoft’s official Edge Insider website downloads the Beta, Dev or Canary version of the Edge browser. However, it should be noted that the smart search function currently only supports the Edge browser under the Windows operating system, and is temporarily unavailable to Linux and macOS users.
In addition to the introduction of smart search, the Edge browser has also made another search-related improvement, that is, users can use the "Find on Page" function in the Edge sidebar. This feature is not just a change of position, but also the ability to display complete sentences containing the user's search content in the updated version. It should be noted that, unlike smart search, the "Find on Page" feature will be rolled out to users in stages and is currently only available to Edge internal testers.
