| When I first saw chatbots, like ChatGPT I was blown away. I had always thought that Google would win the AI wars and was quite surprized that they had nothing to compete with ChatGPT (at the time). My reasoning was their search engine is way ahead of the competition. They were already using AI in search and in search terms. Did you mean "where do I find customers?" they'd ask if you said "where do I find costumers". Their alogorithm would help complete the sentence and of course spell check and translate was always available. Nevertheless, they launched late with Bard. The initial versions of Bard were not very good, but they improved it very, very quickly. The latest version of Bard (bard.google.com) is quite amazing. It is free to use and combines search with AI, which ChatGPT (3.5) lacks. They are still calling it an experiment, so when it is fully launched it is going to be even better. ChatGPT still has one big advantage. It is open to developers and there are hundreds of add-ons/plug-ins. Right now the best AI tool to use to create your own expert chatbot for your website or business would be ChatGPT based, but Bard is beginning to offer this to selected users. I would estimate that by the end of the year, Bard will have nearly as many plug-ins and features as ChatGPT, which itself is undergoing huge improvements. Interesting times ahead.
