Press Release: The advent of the search engine ChatGPT based on artificial intelligence has shaken the world in recent weeks. Many see AI as the beginning of a new technological revolution, and technology companies have begun a battle for this sector. Currently, the leading players seem to be companies Microsoft and Alphabet (Google). Which of them has the greaterance on the dominoanci? And is AI really as revolutionary as it seems at first glance? Tomáš Vranka has already created a the second report, this time focused only on these two leading companies.
How did the battle of the AI giants begin?
Although AI may seem to have appeared out of nowhere recently, large technology companies led by Microsoftem and Alphabet have been working on these projects for a long time (for a summary of all the big AI players, see the report How to invest in artificial intelligence). Google in particular has long been considered one of the leaders in the AI sector. But he delayed its implementation for a long time, thanks to his leading position in the field of search engines, he simply did not need to risk introducing any fundamental changes.
But everything changed Microsoft with its announcement that it intends to implement AI into its Bing search engine. Thanks to the investment Microsoftto the company OpenAIwhich is worth ChatGPT, the company undoubtedly has the necessary technology to implement it, and given Bing's very low popularity, they essentially have nothing to lose. Microsoft has thus decided to declare war on AI by officially introducing its AI search services. The whole event was brilliantly planned and caused quite a stir within Alphabet, which quickly decided to respond with its own presentation. However, it was not very successful, it showed hasty planning, and even the introduction of their AI search engine called Bard was not without problems.
The shortcomings and problems of artificial intelligence
Despite all the initial enthusiasm, criticism has begun to emerge about AI search engines. For example, Google's presentation pointed out possible inaccuracies in the answers. The price of the search itself is also a huge problem, which is several times more expensive than traditional search. The debate about copyright is also a big problem, where some creators believe that AI will cause a loss of their profits for creating materials, as people will visit the sites themselves less. This also raises the issue of regulation. Big Tech is often criticized for unfair treatment of creators and smaller companies. In addition, AI can easily be used to spread disinformation, which governments are fighting against. This list is only the tip of the iceberg, so the future of AI may not be as bright as expected, and it can also mean a lot of difficulties for the companies themselves.
What to expect in the near future?
Alphabet i Microsoft They are undoubtedly well on their way to domineering.anceven in this sector. Microsoft It handled the initial kickoff well, but Alphabet as a market leader cannot be underestimated either. Google's presentation was not very successful, but according to available information, their Bard could be technologically much more powerful than the current one ChatGPT.
