CHAT GPT vs GOOGLE BARD: A RACE OF DEVELOPMENT OR DISASTER?

 

Flying back to a few years, when Artificial Intelligence was just limited to science fiction movies in which humanity is endangered by robotic invasion. Coming back to 2023, the real world that stands with AI being a most rapidly developing technology existing is growing faster than predictions. Lately, by 2022 a developer company OpenAI introduced one of the biggest AI chatbots namely ChatGPT. Following its release, the chatbot gained worldwide attention and made Chat GPT one of the most viral sensations ever.

The evolution in the form of chatbots got a sudden hike after this impressive launch and the birth of a new competition of surpassing each other took place between tech companies right after this growth of interest. To overcome the alarming potential threat to Google search, the company summoned emergency meetings to defend itself against chatgpt. Google stepped into the competition by announcing Bard (a conversational generative artificial intelligence chatbot powered by LAMDA). Hence, a new competition between two players namely OpenAI and Microsoft’s chat GPT and Google’s Bard is initiated in the tech market.

RACE OF DEVELOPMENT:

After the formation of this artificial intelligence competition, the involved companies have been seen to be in a great hurry to win an advantage over one another. Chat GPT was said to be trained up to 2022 however Bard is trained with the latest version of knowledge because of its delayed creation. Google claims Bard to have more sets of information than that of OpenAI’s Chat GPT, however, Open AI has launched ChatGPT-4 with larger data sets.

This race of releasing new chatbots with larger datasets has created a massive threat to user information and privacy as potentially the bots have not been tested well. Adding spice to the competition Microsoft has announced the integration of Bing search and Microsoft Office suite with ChatGPT. This may increase the potential risks of piracy as well as the dependability of users on AI tools. As artificial intelligence enables a system to compare and make decisions under given circumstances, if this uncontrolled race of development kept continued this might cause a huge potential disaster for users ‘privacy, data, skills, and psychology.
