Google Bard
Breakout of AI
Today we are experiencing the widespread adoption and use of AI technologies in all aspects of our lives. It is a time when AI will become so ubiquitous and powerful that it will have a major impact on society, both positive and negative.
Consider the exponential growth of AI capabilities in recent years. For example, the performance of large language models like GPT-3 and Bard has improved by exponentially in just a few years. This means that AI is now capable of performing tasks that were once thought to be impossible, such as generating creative text formats of text content, like poems, code, scripts, musical pieces, email, letters, etc., and answering your questions in an informative way, even if they are open ended, challenging, or strange.
The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence and its potential applications have caught the attention of many tech giants, such as Google and Microsoft.
Introduction to Bard
Bard, a conversational generative artificial intelligence chatbot developed by Google using LaMDA as its initial version, was released in March 2023 in limited capacity as a response to the growing popularity of other chatbots. LaMDA stands for Language Model for Dialogue Applications. It is a family of conversational large language models (LLMs) developed by Google. LaMDA is trained on a massive dataset of text and code, and it is able to generate text, translate languages, write different kinds of creative content, and answer your questions in an informative way.
Google has released Bard, its new AI model, in response to the growing popularity of artificial intelligence and its potential to be as successful as Google Search.
In 2021, Google unveiled LaMDA, a prototype large language model (LLM), but did not release it to the public. When asked by employees whether LaMDA was a missed opportunity to compete with ChatGPT, Google CEO Sundar Pichai and Google AI chief Jeff Dean said that while LaMDA had similar capabilities to ChatGPT, the company wanted to take more time to refine the model before releasing it.
With Google’s extensive experience in cloud computing, search engines, research, and video streaming, it is well-positioned to develop a robust and easy-to-use language model for the world.
Google credibility
Google, the tech giant of search, is constantly innovating to develop easy-to-use and powerful apps that serve the world in the best possible way. The world has experienced Google’s power through its Google Search, cloud computing integrations, Gmail, Google Forms, YouTube, and Android operating system.
In addition to the products and services mentioned above, Google also offers a wide range of other popular apps and services, such as Google Maps, Google Drive, Google Docs, Google Sheets, Google Slides, and Google Meet. These products and services are used by billions of people around the world for a variety of purposes, including work, school, and personal use.
Google is committed to making its products and services accessible to everyone, regardless of their location or technical expertise. For example, Google offers a variety of accessibility features for people with disabilities. Google also offers its products and services in over 100 languages.
Google’s all in one apps
Bard can now access and process information from Google Maps, Flights, Hotels, YouTube, Gmail, Google Docs, and Google Drive in real time, so you can get more done in one place. For example, Bard can help you find a restaurant near you, book a flight, or summarize a document without having to switch between different apps.
For example, Bard can:
- Help you find a restaurant near you and make a reservation.
- Book a flight and track its status.
- Find a hotel and compare prices.
- Find a video on YouTube that is relevant to your interests.
- Find and summarize information from your Gmail inbox.
- Find and summarize information from your Google Docs and Google Drive files.
Bard can also help you with more complex tasks, such as:
- Planning a trip, including finding flights, hotels, and activities.
- Writing a report, including gathering information from different sources and summarizing it in a clear and concise way.
- Creating a presentation, including finding relevant images and videos and putting them together in a visually appealing way.
Bard is still under development, but it has the potential to revolutionize the way we work and live. By providing us with a single point of access to a wide range of information and services, Bard can help us to be more productive and efficient.
Bard Experiment Updates
According to Google’s bard Experiment updates (Source : https://bard.google.com/updates), google has introduced Bard’s most capable model yet, it help to collaborate on something playful and creative, start in one language and continue in up to 40+ other languages, ask for in-depth coding assistance, or learn about new topics from different points of view, Bard can help you explore possibilities with greater quality and accuracy. Google may use your Google Workspace data to train its AI models, but only with your permission.
Google’s Orkut: A cautionary tale for Bard
Orkut was a social networking service launched by Google in 2004. It was one of the first major social networks on the internet, and it quickly became popular in many countries, especially Brazil, India, and Turkey. However, Orkut’s popularity eventually declined, and it was shut down in 2014.
There are a number of reasons why Orkut failed. One reason is that it was simply too late. By the time Orkut was launched, Facebook had already become the dominant social network. Another reason is that Orkut was not very user-friendly. It was difficult to navigate, and it had a number of technical problems.
However, one of the most important reasons for Orkut’s failure is that Google rushed it to market. Orkut was released in beta form in 2004, and it was full of bugs and missing features. Google continued to add new features and fix bugs, but it was too late to save Orkut.
The story of Orkut is a cautionary tale for Bard. Google is clearly in a hurry to release Bard, and it is important to make sure that Bard is ready for market. Bard should be thoroughly tested and debugged before it is released to the public.
Here are some specific lessons that Google can learn from Orkut:
- Don’t rush to market. It is important to take the time to develop a product that is ready for market. Releasing a product that is not ready can have a negative impact on the product’s reputation and make it difficult to attract users.
- Make sure the product is user-friendly. The product should be easy to use and navigate. It should also be free of technical problems.
- Listen to users. Google should collect feedback from users and use that feedback to improve the product.
If Google can learn from the mistakes that were made with Orkut, Bard has a chance to be a successful product. By following these lessons and being mindful of the ethical implications, Google can help to ensure that Bard is a successful and beneficial product.
I hope that Google will be successful with Bard, given its innovative approach and commitment to accessibility, which have made it one of the most successful tech companies in the world. Google’s products and services have had a profound impact on the way people live, work, and communicate, and we can expect the same from Bard.
