DeepMind, a new Google branch, aims to compete directly with ChatGPT
DeepMind |
Google has been struggling to find a suitable response since ChatGPT and Bing Chat grabbed the internet by storm. The business introduced its major ChatGPT competitor, Google Bard, in a blog post the day before, but conducted a hastily put-together AI event in Paris nonetheless. The organization has now unveiled a reorganized DeepMind division, bringing all of its AI professionals under one roof to speed up research in an effort to further streamline its AI strategy.
The newly established department will be known as "Google DeepMind," giving the 2014 acquisition by Alphabet a fresh spin. One of the team's lofty objectives is to "drive one of the greatest social, economic, and scientific transformations in history," among other aspirational objectives, and will be supported by the Brain team from Google Research. In the end, the main goal of the new division is to streamline Google's AI strategy by accelerating and uniting it.
While Jeff Dean, Google's former head of Google AI, will take on the post of Google's Chief Scientist and answer directly to Google CEO Sundar Pichai, the new division will be led by DeepMind CEO Demis Hassabis. Google Research isn't fully disappearing. According to Pichai, the organization would continue to focus on "fundamental advances in computer science across areas such as algorithms and theory, privacy and security, quantum computing, health, climate and sustainability, and responsible AI."
Employees at Google are concerned about the direction the firm is going at the same time. In a Bloomberg story, a worker referred to Google Bard as "a pathological liar," claiming that some of its instructions are fatally flawed and should never be followed, such as when asking it for advice on how to scuba dive or land an aircraft. Many workers would rather see the business adopt a more careful strategy that wouldn't endanger users. We can only hope that Google will follow this road with the help of the reorganized DeepMind group.
