Companies like Google, Microsoft, Meta, Amazon, and others were driving the AI accelerator pedal in 2023, resulting in a boom of innovation in the field. In an attempt to overtake OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Google unveiled Bard, a language model that can compose a sonnet about astronomy.
The company concentrated on models that may aid in healthcare as well as consumer-centric generative AI. AI, according to Google CEO Sundar Pichai, will be the most significant technology that humanity develops in the future.
AI arms race
Additionally, Microsoft and OpenAI collaborated to integrate ChatGPT into several applications, including Microsoft Office, Bing, and Windows. Microsoft intends to use the strength of the Windows and Office brands to propel its AI venture, Copilot, into the future. Although the Bing browser uses the same paradigm as ChatGPT, the results weren’t as dramatic as anticipated. Additionally, Microsoft strengthened its Azure AI platform by including additional services and tools that facilitate the creation and deployment of AI applications by developers.
The business that created ChatGPT, OpenAI, introduced ChatGPT Plus, a premium subscription model that has improved in speed and intelligence but still makes mistakes. Thanks to ChatGPT’s immense popularity, ChatGPT Plus is still the gold standard in generative AI.
Being the leader of the Metaverse and the king of all things social media, Meta (previously Facebook) has led the way. The business presented Massively Multilingual Speech (MMS), a new large language model (LLM) that is capable of identifying over 4,000 spoken languages. The AI sandbox is another Meta AI product that was introduced in 2023. It enables marketers to produce several ad copy variations and build commercials with hip and trendy backdrops for ad copies.
Amazon followed suit, albeit with a different strategy. As to reports, Amazon is developing Olympus LLM, its most potent AI model, for corporate clients who require AI to manage intricate problems and streamline activities.
Additionally, by integrating AWS Bedrock—a platform for developing and implementing AI applications—with well-known language models like Anthropic and Cohere, Amazon increased the availability of its services.
To create more engaging and natural-feeling encounters, Amazon has added new features to their chatbot platform, Amazon Lex, such as generative AI-powered Conversational FAQ and utterance generation.
Still prevailing in the discourse, though, were worries about prejudice, discrimination, and the abuse of AI. Whether AI leads to a nightmarish future ruled by robot overlords or a utopia driven by friendly AI overlords is a subject that will have enormous ramifications for the field as 2024 draws near.
