The chatbot race is heating up

The chatbot race between tech giants has been heating up ever since ChatGPT gained massive popularity, with over 100 million users within just two months of its launch. Microsoft-backed OpenAI’s chatbot, the so-called “Google killer”, has rung the alarms in Google’s headquarters and prompted the tech giant to speed up.

We knew that both Google and Baidu are working on their own chatbots to rival ChatGPT. But it seems like Google is getting a step closer to actually entering the race.

Introducing Bard – LaMDA-powered chatbot by Google

Google’s CEO, Sundar Pichai, has introduced this week “an experimental conversational AI service” called Bard through a message published on Google’s blog.

Bard is powered by Google’s LaMDA – which stands for Language Model for Dialogue Applications.

Google’s ambition is to create various AI expansions for its products. But ChatGPT has posed a serious challenge to Google and its search dominance. So it’s not a surprise that the first product they focus on is Google’s flagship Search tool.

Bard is integrated into the Search tool, and it’s been opened to a group of tester users earlier this week. The plan is to roll it out and make it available worldwide in the following weeks.

Bard will be “bold and responsible”

In the announcement, Google’s CEO shared the company’s commitment to creating an AI product that will be responsible and safe to use. However, it’s not yet clear how the tech giant will ensure Bard is filtering out harmful content.
