Battle Of The Bots — The Heavyweights Have Put Their Gloves On
The world of search engines has become a boxing ring, with two new heavyweights ready to throw punches: Bing ChatGPT and Google Bard. These innovative systems are delivering knockout blows to traditional search engines by offering interactive conversations and concise answers, rather than just simple links.
An Early Knockout: Bing ChatGPT Takes the Lead
Bing ChatGPT has thrown the first punch by launching its conversational AI chatbot before Google Bard, resulting in 1 million pre-registration signups in less than 48 hours to the Microsoft AI platform. Meanwhile, Google Bard is still warming up in the corner, undergoing testing.
Accuracy: The Judges’ Decision
When it comes to accuracy, Bing ChatGPT has been declared the winner, delivering precise answers and links to reliable sources. However, Google Bard took a hard hit during its launch, with an incorrect answer causing a drop in Google’s stock prices and leaving the company stumbling. The incorrect answer was in response to the question, “What new findings from the James Webb Space Telescope can I tell my 9-year-old about?” and was later corrected by NASA.
Training the Bots: Building ChatGPT and Bard
Bing ChatGPT has been trained on OpenAI’s GPT-3 family of language models, using a combination of supervised and reinforcement learning techniques. Google Bard, on the other hand, is powered by the Language Model for Dialogue Applications (LaMDA) and has been launched on a smaller, lighter version of the model to allow for scalability and user feedback.
The Main Event: Who Will Come Out on Top?
Although Bing ChatGPT has taken an early lead, Google has a strong record and isn’t known to take competition lightly. With access to vast amounts of data and the ability to process over 99,000 searches per second, Google is expected to be a formidable opponent. Founder of Unacademy, Gaurav Munjal, stated that Google’s determination to beat Bing ChatGPT is inspiring and that the company’s culture will allow them to become a major player in the AI industry.
Code Red: The Old Timers Asked to Step In
Google knows what’s at stake and they have called a “code red” pulling the original cofounders Larry Page and Sergey Brin in as backup. Google hopes that with these powerhouse heroes, they will be able to formulate strategies to go blow-to-blow with the competition. Time will tell if this strategy pays off but in the meantime, it seems that Microsoft now has Google on the ropes.
The Final Bell: A Close Fight Ahead
Bing ChatGPT and Google Bard are changing the search engine landscape with their conversational AI chatbots, making it a close fight between the two. While Bing ChatGPT seems to have taken an early lead, Google’s vast data and success make this a battle worth watching. It’s time to ring the bell and find out who will be the undisputed champion of the AI fight.
