Google announced the introduction of a conversational AI service called Bard, which is powered by Language Model for Dialogue Application (LAMDA).
The announcement was made by Sundar Pichai, CEO of Google and Alphabet in a statement shared with TechCabal.
Google has described Bard as a “conversational AI service” that combines the depth of the world’s information with the power, intelligence, and creativity of its large language models to help deliver answers to inquiries. Similar to ChapGPT, Bard uses online information to give new, high-quality responses.
This announcement has been much anticipated in the wake of the launch of OpenAI’s long-form question-answering AI, ChatGPT, which answers complex questions conversationally.
Bard uses large-scale language models that have been trained using millions of data points from sources across the internet, such as Wikipedia articles and news stories. With this data at its disposal, Bard can generate high-quality responses that are tailored to each individual inquiry, something traditional search engines cannot do efficiently or effectively enough by themselves. Additionally, unlike other AI services like ChapGPT which rely solely on online sources of knowledge, Bard also incorporates natural language processing techniques so it can better understand complex queries and provide more accurate results than ever before.
