updated: To all appearances Microsoft didn’t remove the Bing AI from Windows 11 after all, as user reports previously suggested. Only the large Bing banner, which refers to the integration, no longer appears. A Microsoft spokesman made this clear:

AI search in Windows 11: Microsoft delivers new update
In addition to smaller patches, Microsoft also provides major updates for Windows 11 at regular intervals, which, among other things, give the operating system new functions. The build, called KB5022913, delivers various innovations, including one that is particularly groundbreaking. Because with the new Windows 11 version Microsoft introduces the AI-supported Bing search.
