BARD

The service will use artificial intelligence to generate answers in text when people type in
queries, similar to what ChatGPT does.

Google said Bard can help people perform tasks like planning a baby shower, compare two
Oscar-nominated movies, or explain discoveries by NASA to a 9-year-old child.

Sundar Pichai, Google’s CEO, said Bard, which is already available to “trusted testers”, is

designed to put the “breadth of the world’s knowledge” behind a conversational interface.

Bard is based on Google’s AI model called LaMDA, which the company had introduced in 2021

as its generative language model for dialogue applications which can ensure that the Google

Assistant would be able to converse on any topic.

“This much smaller model requires significantly less computing power, enabling us to scale to

more users, allowing for more feedback. We’ll combine external feedback with our own internal

testing to make sure Bard’s responses meet a high bar for quality, safety and groundedness in

real-world information,” Google said.

Pichai also said that Google plans to make the underlying technology available to developers

through an API, as OpenAI is doing with ChatGPT, but did not offer a timeline

What is the key difference between ChatGPT and Google’s Bard?

It appears that to take on ChatGPT, Google has an ace up its sleeve: the ability to draw

information from the Internet. “It (Bard) draws on information from the web to provide fresh,

high-quality responses,” Google said in its blog post.

ChatGPT has impressed with its ability to respond to complex queries — though with varying

degrees of accuracy — but its biggest shortcoming perhaps is that it cannot access real-time

information from the Internet.

ChatGPT’s language model was trained on a vast dataset to generate text based on the input, and

the dataset, at the moment, only includes information until 2021.


According to a demo shown by Google, it appears that for questions where there might not be a

clear-cut answer, Bard will synthesise a response that reflects differing opinions.

For example, the question, “Is it easier to learn the piano or the guitar?” would be met with

“Some say the piano is easier to learn, as the finger and hand movements are more natural…

Others say that it’s easier to learn chords on the guitar.”

With the race to build AI-based generative chatbots hotting up, what are the concerns?

The text generation software from Google and OpenAI, while fascinating and eloquent, can be

extremely prone to inaccuracies, experts have pointed out. The ability to search the Internet in

real-time, including content such as hate speech and racial and gender biases and stereotyping,

could lead to problems, and take the sheen off these new products.

ChatGPT is not without its flaws, but it can compile easily readable answers to all kinds of

questions. Seeing as Microsoft plans to integrate it into Bing, it might become a force to be

reckoned with, for the first time giving Google a run for its money. It’s no wonder that Google

rushed to prepare Bard, and perhaps because of the tight deadline, it doesn’t say much about the

tech in the blog post announcement.

Google’s Bard employs the LaMDA (Language Model for Dialogue Application) AI model,

whereas OpenAI’s ChatGPT relies on GPT-3.5. Google’s edge over Microsoft is clear here

because Bard has access to up-to-date information, while ChatGPT relies on training that stopped

in 2021. Microsoft will reportedly use GPT-4 for Bing integration, however, leveling the playing

field.

The initial release of Bard will run on a lightweight version of LaMDA. Google says that this

will consume significantly less computing power, which in turn will allow it to make the tech

available to a large group of users. For the time being, Google’s plan is to open up Bard to
“trusted testers.” In the following weeks, more and more users will gain access to Bard for

testing purposes. Google has big plans for Bard, and it’s clear that it might one day become a part

of the search engine we all use today.

“AI can be helpful in these moments, synthesizing insights for questions where there’s no one

right answer. Soon, you’ll see AI-powered features in Search that distill complex information

and multiple perspectives into easy-to-digest formats, so you can quickly understand the big

picture and learn more from the web: whether that’s seeking out additional perspectives, like

blogs from people who play both piano and guitar, or going deeper on a related topic, like steps

to get started as a beginner. These new AI features will begin rolling out on Google Search

soon,” said Pichai.
