Google is in trouble as a new report claims a former company employee said its new chatbot Bard uses data from rival service ChatGPT.
The Bard chatbot, launched the public trials last week, is also a rival to its Bing Chat Microsoft, which has license της τεχνολογίας ChatGPT της OpenAI. Ωστόσο, σύμφωνα με μια αναφορά από το The Information, ο πρώην ερευνητής της Google AI Jacob Devlin αποχώρησε πρόσφατα από την εταιρεία, όταν προειδοποίησε τον διευθύνοντα σύμβουλο της Alphabet, Sundar Pichai, that Bard was getting data from ChatGPT in an indirect way.
Specifically, Devlin said that Bard's development team had access to a site called ShareGPT, where chats from ChatGPT are posted for anyone to check. However, Google spokesperson Chris Pappas quickly sent a statement to The Verge, which categorically states that "Bard has not been trained on data from ShareGPT or ChatGPT."
Reporters from The Information also claim, via anonymous sources, that Google's Brain AI team is joining forces with DeepMind, another artificial intelligence company under Alphabet.
The two teams are reportedly working together on a new project codenamed Gemini. The aim of the project is to create a product that will be able to compete with OpenAI's efforts. The post seems to suggest that Google wants to have another chatbot on the sidelines if the company's efforts with Bard fail.
