What Bing Image Search does
@bing works exactly like @pic but queries Microsoft Bing instead of Yandex. That difference matters: the two engines index the web separately, so a query that returns a poor grid in one often finds the right picture in the other. Many people keep both in muscle memory and switch when the first grid looks wrong.
As with all built-in inline bots there is nothing to configure, no account, no ads and no downtime. The limitation is the same too: you get a photo, not a link to the source or a license filter.
