- ByStartupStory | February 7, 2023

Google has announced the launch of Bard, a competitor to ChatGPT. The AI chatbot will be made available in the coming weeks.
The chatbot is powered by LaMDA, or Language Model for Dialogue Applications, a large language model developed by Google. Google CEO Sundar Pichai announced on Monday that Bard will be made available to trusted testers.

“It’s a really exciting time to be working on these technologies as we translate deep research and breakthroughs into products that truly help people,” Google CEO Sundar Pichai wrote in a blog post.
The tech behemoth previously revealed that it is testing some features with employees as part of a ‘code red’ strategy to compete with ChatGPT.
“Soon, you will see AI-powered features in Search that distil complex information and multiple perspectives into easy-to-digest formats, so you can quickly understand the big picture and learn more from the web: whether that’s seeking out additional perspectives, like blogs from people who play both piano and guitar, or going deeper on a related topic, like steps to get started as a beginner,” Pichai said.
