The search giant’s new chatbot is in testing and will be launched “in the coming weeks.” Google Bard will be a great alternative for ChatGPT. An API will make it available for developers to build on.
ChatGPT, which stands for Chat Generative Pre-Trained Transformer, created by artificial intelligence firm OpenAI. It is a chatbot; a computer program that converses with human users. The program uses an algorithm that selects words based on lessons learned from scanning billions of pieces of text across the internet.
Sundar Pichai, Google’s CEO, wrote on a blog post that Bard is already available to “trusted testers” and designed to put the “breadth of the world’s knowledge” behind a conversational interface.
Google and OpenAI are both building their bots on text generation software. Google Bard would be widely available to the public in the next few weeks.
Behind the new chatbot is LaMDA, Google’s AI that generated text with such skill that a company engineer last year called it sentient, a claim the technology giant and scientists widely dismissed.
Google is relying on a version of LaMDA that requires less computing power, so it can serve more users and improve with their feedback, Pichai said.
Google also plans to give technology tools, first powered by LaMDA and later by other AI, to creators and enterprises starting next month, Pichai said.
