When using Bing/GPT4 from Web, no footnotes are produced. For example, asking on the Web or in BingGPT produces:

Q: What happened to Dr. Dobb's Journal?
A: Dr. Dobb's Journal (DDJ) was a monthly magazine published in the United States by UBM Technology Group, part of UBM. It covered topics aimed at computer programmers. When launched in 1976, DDJ was the first regular periodical focused on microcomputer software, rather than hardware³. According to an article by editor-in-chief Andrew Binstock, Dr. Dobb's Journal ceased publication of new articles at the end of 2014³. However, archived articles are still available online³.

(See the footnotes 1-8).

The same query From chatGPTBox gives:

Dr. Dobb's Journal was a monthly magazine for computer programmers that started in 1976. It stopped publishing print issues in 2009 and online articles in 2014. You can still access some of its archives online . Are you looking for a specific article or topic from Dr. Dobb's Journal?

Describe the solution you'd like
你期望的新功能实现方案
I don't know if this is deliberate or not. I also don't know if the query is formed in some way that does not generate footnotes or if it is stripping them (I haven't gone to read the code yet). But it would be nice to either preserve the footnotes or give an option to view them somehow.

Additional context
其他
This is actually a key feature that I expect everyone will eventually generate (You.com already does, as well). Seems like it is worth implementing if possible.

Thanks, great tool. I've been telling everyone I know who is interested in ChatGPT about it.
