Google’s BARD vs ChatGPT: Which AI Will Rule the Search Realm?
Google is quickly launching a conversational AI named Bard, due to the impact that OpenAI’s ChatGPT has had on the way, people search for information. The growing threat posed to the tech giant has prompted the development of a Language Model for Dialogue Applications (LaMDA) powered, lightweight version of the conversational AI model. With the vast amount of information available to Google, they have the potential to provide formidable competition in the field.
What is Bard
Bard is an experimental conversation AI service that is powered by LaMDA (Language Model for Dialogue Applications). It draws on information from the Web to provide fresh, high-quality responses to queries.
Exploring Google’s Upcoming AI Features in Search
Have you been eagerly anticipating the integration of ChatGPT-style AI in Google Search? Well, Google has provided a glimpse of what’s to come with an example of how its AI technology will respond to long search queries. Google CEO Sundar Pichai wrote in the blog:
“Soon, you’ll see AI-powered features in Search that distill 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.”
In case you’re wondering, Bard is separate from Google search. This screenshot highlights the AI-powered features that will soon be available on Google Search.
How does Bard respond

How does Bard work?
Bard is powered by LaMDA, a large language model that was developed and released by Google in 2021. Sundar Pichai said the company will initially release Bard on a ‘lightweight’ version of LaMDA that would require significantly less computing power, enabling it to scale to more users and seek more feedback.
Bard seeks to combine the breadth of the world’s knowledge with the power, intelligence, and creativity of the large language models. It draws on information from the web to provide fresh, high-quality responses.
Difference between Bard AI and ChatGPT
Who are the trusted testers
Google has stated that they are not the creators of the Search Quality Raters, but instead work with a third-party supplier to hire a diverse group of individuals from different demographics and locations to evaluate their products. The purpose of this testing is to gather insights and improve the user experience for real users.
Why we care
Analysts suggest, the popular artificial intelligence chatbot, ChatGPT reached 100 million users just two months after launching surpassing TikTok. TikTok reached after nine months of its global launch. Google’s Bard and ChatGPT approach to human-like Q&A response is intriguing. It’s early days, but there may be an evolution in user experience and interface. An interesting aspect to watch is Google’s handling of attribution and citation, particularly in search. For years, Google has utilized AI to generate knowledge panels, which sometimes lack attribution.
In the wake of ChatGPT’s massive adoption, will Google BARD also smash all records and our imaginations?

ChatGPT: No, the success of ChatGPT does not mean it can replace Google. ChatGPT is an advanced language model AI technology that can assist in tasks such as generating content and providing insights. However, it is not designed to be a search engine and cannot match the capabilities and resources of Google. Google has been developed over many years and has a vast amount of data and powerful algorithms to understand users’ queries and provide the most accurate results. While ChatGPT can provide valuable information, it cannot replace Google as a search engine.
Wrapping Up
It is amazing how quickly and easily a chatbot like ChatGPT can provide an overview of audience needs and marketing suggestions with a single prompt. However, it is important to note that these results should be validated against your own audience insights. The information should be refined and expanded upon through a workshop process before final decisions are made on marketing strategies. ChatGPT can be a valuable tool as a starting point for research and brainstorming, but it should not be relied upon solely for making final marketing decisions.
Microsoft is planning to challenge Google by integrating conversational AI with Bing Search. It is considering investing $10 billion in Open AI says a lot about the future of AI. It will be making OpenAI’s ChatGPT available with its Azure OpenAI suite of services.
It’s crucial to keep in mind that while ChatGPT can be a valuable asset, it cannot substitute human expertise and judgment. It should be utilized in conjunction with human skills and creativity to make the best decisions.
Despite the potential challenges in using ChatGPT which we will discuss in the next part of the blog, it’s a powerful tool that can bring significant benefits to the marketing field. To make the most of it, it is crucial to ask the right questions. We can harness the full potential of the technology and stay ahead of the competition Through ongoing learning and experimentation.
