Is Google still in the race for the AI or has ChatGPT already won?

Sooo much to digest, I believe. We need to test, use, criticize, build and in overall discuss more to see if the market share will swift as well

WriteSonic is trying something
Google Switch Transformer is just late, but will also adapt
Hardly to say. Today I read an article about 3 artists that want to take Launch Legal Action to Stop AI Generative Tools from Re-Purposing their Work. The Law is not so complex yet to cover this issue.
@busmark_w_nika Agreed. There's always a legal gap when something new comes, and some players will take as much advantage as they can.
A lot of lawsuits are coming now, but as you suggest, I don't think the law is going to be able to make a resolution in those cases.
I think it's too early to say any one company has won; we're in the infancy stages still of A.I and what it can do whilst impressive is pretty tame, there's still a long way to go, and I wouldn't count out a company like Google.
@aaronoleary The AI future is exciting and scary at the same time. Let's see what 2023 has to say about that :D
I think Google won't give up easily and they will not try to lower the relevance of AI but probably developing their own.
@derstartupcfo Agreed. Google has a huge distribution channel, so the moment they develop (or fully develop) their own, they could make a successful move on the market.
I don't even think the race has even started yet. ChatGPT just gets NLP into the hands of the average consumer, but it's not a fully complete product. GPT-3 also from OpenAI is stronger, but not easily accessible for the average person so most don't know about it. Google definitely has very strong models yet to be released. Also, there are many races. AI is a generally used term, but not a good one to describe all the things happening. There are separate races in NLP, vision, etc since they all require different types of models and are trained on different datasets.
They are, in fact, because they don't want to end a war without a battle. 😃
Google is in the race for everything - self driving cars, webmail, ai, search engine, etc
Google being a jack of all trades (and master of, like, 2) is both a blessing and a hindrance
I think its more like a marathon, and everyone participating is a winner.
@shikhar15 Now that you mention, probably everything in life is like a marathon. Let's see what happens :D
Google is still a major player in the field of artificial intelligence (AI). They have a large team of researchers and engineers working on various AI projects, such as natural language processing, computer vision, and machine learning. However, it's important to note that AI is a rapidly evolving field, and there are many other companies and organizations also making significant contributions. Additionally, GPT-3, the model behind ChatGPT, is a specific type of AI model called a language model and it's not intended to compete with other AI models or companies, rather it's designed to assist in natural language generation tasks.
We're way too early to tell if OpenAI/Microsoft are going to topple Google with ChatGPT or GPT-3.
Google hasn't counter attacked yet. They arguably have:
- more and better data through their search engine + Google Analytics + Maps etc
- war chest to afford expensive AI training
- hardware (TPUs) to train the AI
- talent to build AI models that can rival OpenAI's. Remember that the "Transformer" architecture that powers most generative AI technology (it's the "T" in GPT) was developed at Google
I'm curious to see what Google's response will be. Also curious to see whether Facebook joins the fray, even though they seem to be hellbent on "Metaverse".
ChatGPT has already won, they are on top and it is said they will implement a way bigger AI software capacity soon.
I think the way Google works, they probably already have something that's equally good (if not better). But, instead of giving everyone a playground to interact with it directly, they will just use it *subtly* to make their existing products 10x better.
Google is still actively involved in the field of artificial intelligence (AI) and is considered a leader in the industry. They have a number of research projects and products related to AI, including Google AI, which is focused on advancing the state of the art in machine learning and AI. ChatGPT is a specific language model developed by OpenAI, and it is not in competition with Google or other companies in the field. Instead, it is a tool that can be used to develop new AI-based applications and services.
I bet that google has the edge here; OpenAI can be more experimental and push a product that confidently says the Motzart was a french cheese. Google seems to take facts more seriously, and when they release their version, It'll take over chatGPT. No matter who wins, this race is fascinating.
How do you use AI?
Google is still very much in the race.
Everyone forgets that ChatGPT was made using the conversational AI platform made by Google and also has their own Generative Pre-trained Transformer in LaMDA which they've been working on in private for years.
ChatGPT is still not production ready and whilst of course early adopters are running with it, there is still plenty of time for a Google or someone else to steal the market.
I think it's not really a matter of "winning" or "losing" - both Google and ChatGPT are important players in the AI field and will continue to push the boundaries of what's possible.
But what's important is that the competition makes each of them improve and develop new AI technologies.
I remember that crazy story about a sentient AI inside Google servers!
