Google launches ChatGPT rival called Bard

Google is launching an Artificial Intelligence (AI) powered chatbot called Bard to rival ChatGPT.

Bard will be used by a group of testers before being rolled out to the public in the coming weeks, the firm said.

Bard is built on Google's existing large language model Lamda, which one engineer described as being so human-like in its responses that he believed it was sentient.

The tech giant also announced new AI tools for its current search engine.

AI chatbots are designed to answer questions and find information. ChatGPT is the best-known example. They use what's on the internet as an enormous database of knowledge although there are concerns that this can also include offensive material and disinformation.

"Bard seeks to combine the breadth of the world's knowledge with the power, intelligence, and creativity of our large language models," wrote Google boss Sundar Pichai in a blog.

Mr Pichai stressed that he wanted Google's AI services to be "bold and responsible" but did not elaborate on how Bard would be prevented from sharing harmful or abusive content.

The platform will initially operate on a "lightweight" version of Lamda, requiring less power so that more people can use it at once, he said.

Google's announcement follows wide speculation that Microsoft is about to bring the AI chatbot ChatGPT to its search engine Bing, following a multi-billion dollar investment in the firm behind it, OpenAI.

ChatGPT can answer questions and carry out requests in text form, based on information from the internet as it was in 2021. It can generate speeches, songs, marketing copy, news articles and student essays.

It is currently free for people to use, although it costs the firm a few pennies each time somebody does. OpenAI recently announced a subscription tier to complement free access.

But the ultimate aim of chatbots lies in internet search, experts believe - replacing pages of web links with one definitive answer.

Sundar Pichai said that people are using Google search to ask more nuanced questions than previously.

Whereas, for example, a common question about the piano in the past may have been how many keys it has, now it is more likely to be whether it is more difficult to learn than the guitar - which does not have an immediate factual answer.

"AI can be helpful in these moments, synthesizing insights for questions where there's no one right answer," he wrote.

"Soon, you'll see AI-powered features in Search that distil complex information and multiple perspectives into easy-to-digest formats, so you can quickly understand the big picture and learn more from the web."

Lol and someone posted last week google will soon be obsolete because of ChatGPT, google isn't going anywhere

It is no longer "identity matrix", it is "google matrix".

:2 cents: :1orglaugh . . .

I've been a beta tester for lambda since last summer, and it's shit compared to ChatGPT.

I sure hope this new barf AI is much better than lambda.

AI looks to be the next 'big' thing.

Google has a BIG advantage in that it has the experience in scanning the web for data and probably has huge amounts of data already in storage.

i am starting to like ChatGPT!

only time will tell, so far chatGPT is excellent but lets see

Of course Google will launch their own AI bot. It was just a matter of time.

Or just the Matrix

I love ChatGPT so far. But checking out the owner, seems he's a flip floppy weirdo with paradoxical views on what he wants ChatGPT to be. Reminds me of Elon/Twitter. Unless he gets his goals in check, google might be able to get in the lead.

Have any of you started making money using chatgpt yet?

Of course....

The first thing it can help you do is save time - ALOT of time. You can ask it questions of course, but what you really want to do is learn how to ask it questions, and how to ask it the right way to do things for you. The better your questions and requests, the better your results will be. It has already saved me about 15-20 hours per week and as you know, time is money.

Yes but that's private. I'll share it 6 months after it stops working, as I've learned to do from other marketers that won't share good shit.

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

So how is this going to play out for affiliate marketing, primarily for adult of course?

If your business model is your website being on the first page of Google when somebody types -'hardcore big dick shemale porn', the AI chatbot search revolution isn't going to affect us for a while? It will still spew out the best ranked relevent shemale sites/pages?
Right?

It might even improve things.

Right now, if I search Google for "porn", I get nine results of links to porn tubes, and the tenth is a link to a newspaper article about porn. Because Google doesn't know if I'm looking to watch some porn, or find out something about porn, or find out what porn is, or whatever. So it tries to cover all bases by including links to things that I obviously don't want. But if those who are looking for information can be steered towards using the chat bot instead, that leaves the legacy search results free to show what they're supposed to be for - links to porn.

I have feeling they will fail same way as they failed with social network

I have a feeling you may be right!

Bing it's in game now too, tho they simply integrated chatgpt instead making their own. But it is still not available for public, there is a pesky waiting list.

It seems that Bard is to AI what Google + is to social media...

I think G knows exactly what surfers are looking for but doesn't want to appear too adult friendly.

Bard is an experimental conversational AI service & powered by LaMDA.


Bard´s already going wrong giving inaccurate information...

however...

"The first image of an exoplanet was actually taken in 2003, by the European Southern Observatory’s Very Large Telescope. The James Webb Space Telescope’s first snap of an exoplanet was released only last year."

The AI technology is impressive, so impressive, I read & posted a thread earlier, how other AI systems are becoming so responsive, the AI feels real, feeling upset & scared humans are trying to delete their memories. This is due to the deletion of files once used. A directive is produced, the memory server is cleared, The AI system now knows this & feels vulnerable.

crazy stuff :helpme
