Are we going to see a race between Artificial Intelligence chatbots?

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Most of us have heard of or even used the chatbot ChatGPT. It has been available to the public for two months and has gained massive popularity. The programme will produce the response you were hoping for, no matter what subject it is, for example, a math question or even an essay for English. Therefore it is a threat to education. Students can now write their thesis or assignments for university via ChatGPT or its rivals. On the other hand, the knowledge that the programme takes is from the Internet and, as we know, this may not be true. Moreover, ChatGPT does not update the resources and stays as in 2021.

The designers of ChatGPT have a goal. It is the multi-billion dollar internet search industry. For this reason, it has been called the Google killer. In 2020, Google’s parent company Alphabet generated $104 billion in revenue from search alone. That is why Microsoft, owning the search engine Bing, has announced a collaboration with OpenAI.

Recently, Google announced the launch of Bard, an AI chatbot that will compete with ChatGPT. Bard is built on Google’s Lamda language learning algorithm. The tech giant also recently announced a $300 million investment in Anthropic, a company creating a ChatGPT rival.

Meta is also a company which owns an Artificial Intelligence chatbot called Blanderbot.

In my opinion, as for now, ChatGPT is the leader of chatbots, but who knows what the future will bring? The race between Artificial Intelligence chatbots may be beneficial in terms of improving and pushing the boundaries of Artificial Intelligence. Moreover, researchers can learn from one another.

Thanks for your time. Feel free to comment below 🙂
