Revealing its AI chatbot Bard in the coming weeks. Google‘s Bard will rely on Google’s AI model named Language Model for Dialogue Applications (LaMDA).
Heaptalk, Jakarta — Following the establishment of ChatGPT recently launched, Google also plans to unveil a ChatGPT competitor named Bard. Before being launched officially to the public in the weeks ahead, this artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot Bard will only be available for a group of assessors in the early phase.
“Bard aims to combine the breadth of world knowledge with our large language models’ power, intelligence, and creativity. This tool pulls information from the web to provide fresh, high-quality responses,” affirmed the Chief Executive Officer of Google, Sundar Pichai.
Nevertheless, Pichai is still undisclosed in the additional capabilities of this chatbot technology in detail, but it seems the chatbot will be just as free-ranging as OpenAI’s ChatGPT. Google’s Bard technology and ChatGPT possess comparable services. Users have to add a question, a request, or afford prompt to gain a human-like response.
According to Pichai, Bard will rely on an AI model that Google developed many years ago, called the Language Model for Dialogue Applications (LaMDA), as a lighter version that requires less computing power to be used by many people.
The CEO also claimed this latest AI technology, including LaMDA, PaLM, image generator Imagen, and music creator MusicLM will be embedded in the search machine. AI support for this search engine will be able to summarize complex information and multiple points of view in an easier-to-understand format.
Although Google has advanced expertise in the AI that powers ChatGPT, this company has taken a more careful approach to share its tools with the public. Like the other technology company, Googleopena has been wary of a backlash against untested AI.
The launch of Bards indicates a transformation move of Google towards this technology. Based on the blog post, Pichai emphasizes how the company is already building AI into many products, including Search.
Over the past few years, Google has used AI to summarize more search results, displaying information from the site rather than letting users click and browse through themselves. For this reason, Pichai has robust confidence that this feature will be more prominent.
“Soon, you will see AI-powered features in Search that distill complex information and multiple perspectives into easy-to-digest formats. These new AI features will begin rolling out on Google Search soon,” said Pichai, cited in the verge.
As it is known, this announcement pursues wide speculation that Microsoft is about to bring the AI chatbot ChatGPT to its search engine Bing, following a multibillion-dollar investment in the OpenAI.
