Google AI: Cost of introducing new technology, Google itself in the face of loss of 8 thousand crore rupees

Probably everyone will admit that ChatGPT is the most popular AI or Artificial Intelligence tool in the world right now. 

We can see the application of OpenAI company's technology in various areas of the internet as chatbots, which virtually answer questions like humans in realtime. In that case, tech giant Google recently launched a unique chatbot named 'Bard' to match the growth of ChatGPT. It is based on LaMDA, which the company has been working on for a long time and still is; For now, only testers i.e. selected people can use this Google AI. But this Google Bard has encountered a setback in this practice – now it seems that the company rushed to introduce this technology to compete. The chatbot's job is to answer correctly, but in Bard's case performance has been questioned early on, and the company is paying for it. Let's find out the whole thing…

Google has suffered a loss of Rs 8,250 billion

In fact, on Wednesday, February 8, the shares of Google's parent company Alphabet fell sharply, and the reason for this fall is being blamed on the new Bird chatbot. According to reports, Google's parent company suffered a loss of $100 billion (roughly Rs. 8,250 billion) after the launch of Bird.

How did Bard put Google in harm's way?

Misinformation in Google's Bird promotional video is believed to be the cause of the company's share loss. Reuters discovered a flaw in Google's promotional video that showed chatbot Bird giving the wrong answer when asked a question. In this case, the video asked the question, 'What should a 9-year-old child say about the new discovery of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST)?', in response, AI Bird says that the JWST is used to take pictures of planets outside the Milky Way. This answer is completely wrong! Originally the James Webb Space Telescope was used to probe the universe's past. Not only that, its work is divided into four parts and it is also called the successor of the Hubble telescope.

Although Google initially stumbled with chatbots, another major technology company, Microsoft, has launched the new Bing search engine by integrating the old ChatGPT. This search engine will offer both types of services – free and subscription based. And in this, it is assumed that the pressure of Google is going to increase. However, only time will tell how far Microsoft can go in the overall game.
