Google is releasing its own artificial intelligence chatbot, called Bard, as it responds to the huge success of the Microsoft-backed ChatGPT.
Large language AI models such as LaMDA and the one behind ChatGPT are types of neural networks, which mimic the underlying architecture of the brain in computer form. They are fed vast amounts of text from the internet in a process that teaches them how to generate responses to text-based prompts.
ChatGPT has become a sensation after its public release in November, creating all kinds of credible content from academic essays to poems and job applications. According to analysts, it has already reached 100 million users.
