Google’s CEO Sundar Pichai has just introduced in a blog post its latest artificial intelligence to compete against OpenAI’s ChatGPT.
Google’s AI is called Bard, which is their experimental conversational AI service that is powered by LaMDA or Language Model for Dialogue Applications.
Google is currently opening it up to testers first before making it widely available to the public in the coming weeks.
They also stated that it is initially releasing with their lightweight model of LaMDA, which requires less computing power and thus enables it to scale to more users and receive quality feedback.
“Bard seeks to combine the breadth of the world’s knowledge with the power, intelligence and creativity of our large language models. It draws on information from the web to provide fresh, high-quality responses. Bard can be an outlet for creativity, and a launchpad for curiosity, helping you to explain new discoveries from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope to a 9-year-old, or learn more about the best strikers in football right now, and then get drills to build your skills.” — Sundar Pichai, CEO of Google and Alphabet
Furthermore, Google stated that it will soon bring the benefits of AI to other products, most especially and beginning with Google Search. Which is expected to have new AI features soon.
By next month, Google will also be onboarding individual developers, creators, and enterprises to test out their Generative Language API with the goal of creating a suite of tools and APIs for others to develop and use.
