Google is expecting a lot from its latest AI-powered chatbot, Bard. The company recently launched Bard for beta testing, stating that since it’s not an alternative to search, it’s a tool to help search, there will be bugs.
The tech giant has long been criticized for spending so much time launching the chatbot while other competitors, including Microsoft, have been making waves with their Bing search. But Google ignored that and wanted to make sure it was as perfect as possible.
Despite all the efforts and delays, the Bard tool doesn’t seem to live up to the hype and expectations it’s raised for so long.
Bard has really had to improve to compete with tools like OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Microsoft’s Bing, and he may not have made it yet, new expert analysis shows.
Potential popularity, or rather lack of popularity, would have a serious impact on Google’s search leadership. After all, Google is currently number one in today’s technology world.
But so far it would not be wrong to say that there are no significant positive signs.
Google started the beta testing process on Tuesday and really opened up its Bard tool by asking users in the US and UK to sign up and sign up to use the tool. The aim is to open up access now and expand it in the future.
Google has stated that its product is currently in the first phase of testing and will allow users to enter the world of generative AI. However, you must be at least 18 years old, have a Google account and use compatible browsers.
But the first testers are not satisfied with what is on offer. They compared it to the ChatGPT technology developed by OpenAI and found it extremely disappointing.
This lackluster launch is obviously not what Google was hoping for. When the demo launched last month, the platform took $100 billion off Alphabet’s valuation and shares plummeted.
We can only imagine the damage this can do to the company if it doesn’t live up to the hype and falls short of ChatGPT and Bing.
