Can Chat GPT be trusted enough to displace Google, one of the most used search engines worldwide?

Artificial intelligence is sweeping the globe, and some of the most recent breakthroughs, like Chat GPT, are mind-blowing. However, given that Chat GPT strives to provide answers to every question or query you pose, it is also being questioned whether it can replace the well-known Google Search or other search engines. We'll attempt to respond to the query today. But let's go over the fundamentals first.

Chat GPT: What is it?

Launched by OpenAI in November 2022, ChatGPT (Chat Generative Pre-trained Transformer) is a chatbot. The model was taught by OpenAI to converse with the user on the other end. According to OpenAI, "the dialogue style enables ChatGPT to respond to follow-up queries, acknowledge its errors, contest false premises, and reject unsuitable requests."

Although Chat GPT is still free to use, there is a new paid professional plan that costs $42 per month and gives you extra benefits over the free users. The human-likeness of Chat GPT's responses is astounding, and users have been fully utilising it for both personal and commercial purposes.

Why is Google worried?

According to a recent article in The New York Times, Google is quite concerned about Chat GPT's presence as it may endanger Google's search business. Ironically, since its start, Google's Search engine has devoured other niche companies since they couldn't compete with what Google was doing.

According to experts, Google should be concerned about other organisations that are developing concepts similar to Chat GPT as well. This is due to the fact that these AI chatbots have us questioning why anyone would use Google Search when they can ask AI directly and receive a more precise answer with the benefit of a human touch.

According to a Google official who talked with the New York Times, AI chatbots like ChatGPT might disrupt the search industry, which would then damage Google's ad business, which generates the majority of the company's revenue.

Does Google have a counter plan?

A company the size of Google is by no means short on resources, and they can be used effectively if they believe their existence is in danger. Google therefore demonstrated its chatbot in 2021 since it was aware of the direction the world was headed. LaMDA, which stands for Language Model for Dialogue Applications, is the name of Google's technology.

LaMDA has spent years developing her communication talents. It is built on Transformer, a neural network architecture that Google Research created and made available for use in 2017; other recent language models using Transformer include BERT and GPT-3, the company said when announcing the chatbot.
