Following the popularity of ChatGPT, several companies have entered a development race. The American start-up OpenAI, backed by technology giant Microsoft, launched that chat robot with artificial intelligence at the end of November. He turned out to be a huge success.
On Monday, the American internet giant Google already announced the rollout of its own smart chatbot Bard. It will become “more widely available” to the general public in the coming weeks. On Tuesday, Chinese sector colleague Baidu followed, which is entering an internal test phase with its Ernie Bot that would end in March. After that, the chatbot will be made available to the general public, but there is no exact date yet.
Alibaba has now also announced that it has its own chat robot that is currently being tested by employees. The Chinese e-commerce group has not yet announced details about the launch of the tool, or how it will be made available.
On Tuesday, Microsoft announced that it will integrate artificial intelligence into its Bing search engine. The American software company will use OpenAI technology for this, in which it will invest USD 10 billion in the coming years.
Google said Monday it is also working on other AI projects, including language models, image generator Imagen and MusicLM, which converts text into music. It also wants to integrate those applications into its popular search engine “soon”.
