Reply to comment by Reddituser45005 in Bing's First Week With AI Powers Shows Google Needn't Worry by No-Drawing-6975

Look at past news from Google. My bet is that Google has been sitting on their AI for years, tuning it getting it consumer ready. My bet is that they can release something better than Bing very quickly if needed.

For example, the news from last year about the Google AI tester that claimed Lambda was sentient.

Google knew exactly that Bing's chatbot would fail like this when exposed to consumers.

The difference between Google and Microsoft is expectations. If Google released a chatbot like Bing it would have been brand damaging. For Microsoft it's just another bad consumer experience over the years.

Google lost 100 billion In valuation after the early February release of Bard, the Google Chatbot that they previewed.

“Bard underwhelmed audiences with inaccurate responses”

Actually, my bet would be on a non US based AI. Baidu in China is a competitor but there are less obvious choices. Hyundai recently bought robotics firm Boston Dynamics but that is just one piece of their broad based AI R&D efforts. The point is there are dozens of well funded AI efforts doing top tier cutting edge work. Any one of them could create the next “game changer”.
