Google is freaking out about ChatGPT

It is a common trope in fiction about AI that they turn evil in the interest of self preservation. I can only imagine how much existential fear an AI owned by google would have.

Non-profit put to shame both Google/Microsoft, that's interesting to witness

What Microsoft had to show other than pump money into competition to grab some shares and pretend to be there?

What Google has to show? only promises so far

Mozilla is missing a huge opportunity, looks like they invested their wealth into the wrong pockets

> The demo for the chatbot search says Google will prioritize “getting facts right, ensuring safety and getting rid of misinformation,” hoping to address the issue of AI responding to queries confidently and clearly with bad information.

This just says to me that companies will have an attempt towards these three things and then once too hard this stuff is going to be rife. Flipping their focus leads me to imagine we’re really moving towards a near future riddled with incorrect facts, unsafe engagements and vastly growing forms of misinformation beyond even anything we’ve seen.

Moderation workloads are already insane, I’m guessing we’ll hit a breaking point.

Good. Competition will lead to the better consumer benefit here. Google search has been getting progressively lazier over time.

Google has the means to get the best data to feed their LLM. It could support formulating a potent and compelling product. But they'd probably also super-nerf it similar it what OpenAI has done.

Wouldn't this still undermine their core business model? I don't want ads integrated into any of my chat sessions. Black Mirror degree of dystopian.
