Two years back when OpenAI first introduced ChatGPT, the internet users were very excited. However, for Google management, it pushed them into a frenzy. Most tech experts said that ChatGPT was the future and this tool can easily put an end to the hegemony of Google.
Two years later, we don’t see Google going anywhere. Instead, we are seeing an ongoing tech war within the realm of AI where no one has reached the leading position yet. Every week OpenAI updates its tool, introduces a feature, and issues an enticing claim about the future of AI.
Within a few weeks, we see Google launching something better with more features, advanced usability, and broader applications. This war has come to a point where digital marketing specifically and the tech industry in general is going through a transformation at a much faster rate than expected.
While OpenAI can be seen as the pioneer of democratic AI, Google can be seen as the leading competitor. Anyone with a solid internet connection like Xfinity can easily access both the OpenAI and Google. However, most of the tools offered by OpenAI are paid, so this can be a deciding factor for most users.
If you are thinking that Google is no longer afraid of losing its leading position, then you might be wrong. Google is surely accelerating into the field of AI but it is not ready to lose its hegemony in the search engine category yet. Experts also believe that this sudden urge to do better has a fear of loss embedded at its core.
How AI Large Language Model Has Evolved?
What started as a large language model strictly constricted to text has now surpassed expectations and turned into a tool that can do it all. From generation photos to editing videos and even keeping track of the information provided before, you will see it all coming to reality in no time.
Back in December 2023, Google first introduced its Gemini tool. The tool was endorsed as the most powerful AI tool to ever hit the market. What makes it more interesting is that Gemini also comes with three variations that offer proficiency in different categories. These variations include Pro, Nano, and Ultra.
The most groundbreaking feature within the Gemini family is its ability to comprehend prompts and read the intent. While most of the AI tools limit the prompt characters and token size, Gemini lets the user go beyond the token size of 128,000.
The Gemini 1.5 has the capacity to not just cut down the latency but it will polish the user experience as well as cut down the computational demands. So, next time you give a promotion to Gemini, prepare to be amazed because it has the capacity to comprehend the task better and at a much faster speed. Moreover, it will also be able to offer you a much better output that will boost your overall productivity.
What is new with OpenAI?
Now, you might be thinking, if Google is so good why its hegemony will be challenged?
Well, to answer this question, you just need to know that its competitor is doing much better and is more fearless than ever. Google has a big brand name and it is not willing to let go or think about losing the tag anytime soon on the contrary OpenAI has gained a lot of attention because of its innovative features. Although it has now become one of the most talked about tech companies in the market they are more prone to taking risks.
OpenAI Vs Google: Who Will Win?
Just a few days ago, the head of OpenAI, challenged the dominance of Google. According to the CEO, they are now working toward making a search engine that is much more powerful and accurate than Google. Moreover, there will be no loopholes and manipulation involved, offering an ad-free platform where the finest product and accurate information will win. This debate was first sparked when Binge openly confessed to shaking hands with OpenAI. While this was considered a good initiative, OpenAI was expecting Google to follow the precedent. Fast forward to a year and a few months later, OpenAI has failed to replace Google and Google has said no to adding OpenAI to its search engine.
Even after so much debate, OpenAI has still not answered if the search engine offered by OpenAI will be a solo entity or if it will replicate something that Google is currently offering. Regardless of what OpenAI decides and when the tool is rolled out in the future, one thing is for sure: users will have more options than ever but marketers and businesses will struggle to find a common ground between OpenAI and Google.
Moreover, the contribution of Microsoft in the search engine venture also gives legitimacy to the claim and most experts are expecting OpenAI to issue a good enough search engine in the next few months. Apart from the search engine project, OpenAI has also sped up its struggle towards ChatGPT 5, which is now expected to be launched in the summer of this year.
Wrap Up
Regardless of what the future holds, one thing is for certain, change is now inevitable. More business and more skills will soon be replaced but also more people will be expected to learn new skills and utilize the power of AI in each task.
