Do you think BARD will overtake ChatGPT?
Do you think BARD will take over ChatGPT because it's part of the Google ecosystem and will be integrated and adopted quicker by the mass? Or does ChatGPT already have a considerable headstart?

@aaronoleary OpenAI is definitely going to beat Google. They went through 3 iterations to land on GPT-3 as the finely tuned engine that not only uses massive datasets but human labelers to produce output without discernable imperfection. Bard's launch is a testatement to this, it received negative headlines for the inaccuracy of its output
@aaronoleary @adamlui It still has some work to do indeed, but knowing Google I think they'll catch up quickly
I highly doubt it.
ChatGPT is already being used by many users & people have made a habit of going to ChatGPT.
It's pretty challenging to change people's habits.
@saloni_jain10 @adamlui I think ChatGPT is mainly adopted by tech people/younger generations instead of the mass right now so I think Google can still earn a big market share if they roll it out to the mass because a lot of people are in the Google ecosystem already
@adamlui @bartdrijver97 I completely agree. It will work just fine if they can find the correct market fit in terms of audience apart from tech/content (or the younger generation) where ChatGPT is already a hero.
Hello,
I think they are going to target different users. Most of the people that I know (no tech people or no startup people), don't know much about ChatGPT and how to use it. I think that audience is where Google Bard can reach.
All the best,
@rubenlozanome This is so true, which is why I believe my DuckDuckGPT got featured today (people just want to use it after hearing all the buzz). It gives me idea to build GoogleGPT next, too!
@rubenlozanome In that, I think people know about it and using it for data to day basis their content and marketing work.
Even I have seen a few ed-tech founder who are using it simplify their common dev problem,.
I think BARD has some potential to surpass ChatGPT but it will take time. Many people are already actively using ChatGPT (or if they're not using it, they're definitely aware of its existence) and I can tell from my own experience that it's hard to convince people to switch to a new tool once they've grown accustomed to the first one. Not to mention OpenAI is surely aware of their competition, so they will most likely come up with all sorts of improvements and updates to stay ahead of the game.
It will be an interesting competition, that's for sure. 😄
@heleana Convincing someone to switch is challenging indeed. I think their biggest advantage will be that BARD will be integrated in the Google ecosystem that a lot of people are using already. It will definitely be an interesting competition!
Google has an enormous data and know how, that is why in mid-term i believe they can create a similar quality product like chat GPT but the real question will be how they will position BARD?
Will it replace google search bar or a gpt-like standalone tool? Will they use their trust score to scramble answers from various websites or how it will be? Will they enable BARD answers benefit from google's data analysis like google trends or popular local searches or will it be static?
I think it is a matter of which company we trust for their API. Many of us still remember being burned by Google for giving us APIs that they soon sunset. You learn to not invest time building on someone else's land.
I think it could if they present in their products, like Gmail, chrome, meets, etc. ChatGPT presented a really great way that attracted many users. If BRAD will be integrated their product and people will use it daily I think they can overtake it.
@dineshan_sithamparanathan Agree! But I think content creators that create rather than using AI will find an audience from a flight to quality that AI will never match. The masses eat at McDonald's but there will always be a place for the gourmet burger joint.....
Not this time, but let's see soon. (Mostly, target of ChatGPT are techy persons while mostly Google target users are those non-techy)
@bartdrijver97 That's right! but keep in mind that ChatGPT gain 1m user within just the first 2months of release.
Both BARD and ChatGPT are impressive language models with their unique strengths and capabilities. It's not a competition, but rather a healthy advancement in the field of AI. In the end, the success of a language model is determined by its ability to provide value to users and improve their experience. So, let's celebrate the progress and look forward to seeing how both models continue to evolve and contribute to the AI community.
Reports say that Google's Bard would be able to provide fresh, up-to-date responses while ChatGPT would, unfortunately, be limited to information relating to events, not beyond 2021 (ChatGPT's current data training cut-off).
@lydia_cohen
But I guess using Bing powered with ChatGPT will solve that issue of providing latest info.
@lydia_cohen this is not true, those reporters are wrong, for example type 'when was wwii' and it knows the exact years
I would say yes, the bard will cross the competition between these two.
This can be beneficial if you want more control over how your application works and looks
Chatgpt has backed with Microsoft which gives it a nice headstart ..though a lot of non-tech people aren't aware of ChatGPT .....these are the users who Bard will target easily with Google's data.
Currently at the time ChatGPT has marked its place making it difficult for BARD to overtake but with time i guess BARD can give a competition to ChatGPT.
@aksh_porwal this will be quite difficult since ChatGPT is the fastest growing app of all time (not just for AI) so by the time BARD catches up in tech, they will be facing a Google-like monopoly (which it already is really)
I think distribution matters a lot for the product like this and despite the embarrassing launch, I think BARD should catch up pretty quickly - given just the pre-organised volume of data that Google already has. But there will likely remain also a large chunk of a different kind of search where the current text box, or some future version of the search text box is still the most useful way to get information. If you've tried bing+chatgpt, tbh the experience is also not the best yet to make me change my behaviour.
@new_user__01820236624ba7b772706a9 ChatGPT is already the fastest growing app of all time, so even if/when Bard catches up to the technology of GPT-3, OpenAI will be like the Google of chat AI by then
@new_user__01820236624ba7b772706a9 I agree that it's a marvelous product! Bard will have some catching up to do but I think Google will make it work somehow
The success of a language model like BARD or ChatGPT will depend on various factors such as quality, ease of use, and level of support. While being part of the Google ecosystem might give BARD an advantage, ChatGPT has already established itself as a highly capable model with a large user base. The outcome is uncertain and depends on the ability to meet user needs and provide value
Chat GPT is one of my favs. Have seen a lot of generative models while conducting research, but GPT3 is still my favorite.
@chang_dia I've had a lot of fun with it already as well, I haven't tested many other similar tools though
