Google has unveiled an experimental conversational AI service called Bard, which combines the world’s knowledge with large language models to provide fresh, high-quality responses, and has also announced plans to incorporate its latest AI technologies into its products.
- Google has launched an experimental conversational AI service, Bard, that uses its Language Model for Dialogue Applications (LaMDA).
- Bard combines the world’s knowledge with large language models to provide fresh, high-quality responses to help people learn new things and explain complex topics.
- The service has been released initially with a smaller version of LaMDA that requires less computing power and will allow Google to scale to more users, enabling it to gather feedback to improve the service’s quality and speed.
- Google’s latest AI technologies, such as LaMDA, PaLM, Imagen, and MusicLM, will be incorporated into its products, starting with Search.
- AI-powered features in Search will be able to distill complex information and multiple perspectives into easy-to-digest formats, making it easier for people to find what they’re looking for.
- Google plans to onboard individual developers, creators, and enterprises to try its Generative Language API, initially powered by LaMDA.
- The company is committed to developing AI responsibly and will work with governments, external organizations, and experts to ensure that it is safe and useful.
