AI Wars! Microsoft and Google go head to head!

Published on

 

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is present in various areas. It instructs robots to act almost like humans. It can even form a 1000-word essay or PowerPoint presentation with just a few keywords. And those abilities have now led to the kitchen. AI can give you a mouthwatering dinner recipe using the one tomato, half a chicken breast and slice of watermelon in your fridge.

AI is taking (over?) the world by storm.

 

For the average guy like me, understanding all of this fully can take a bit of time. But luckily I have an expert in the tech field always close by.

Listen HERE to my chat with Theunis Janse van Vuuren about what is currently happening in this AI space!

 

 

But the big news is how Microsoft managed to incorporate ChatGPT into their Bing search engine. They have, for the first time in their history, reached 100 million active daily users – all in a fairly short amount of time as well!

Google has always been the go-to search engine for many. For so long, we were saying, “just Google it”. But with Microsoft implementing this AI into their search engine, it seems like a lot of people are jumping search engine ship!

 

Not only is Microsoft implementing this AI into the search engine, but will start rolling out ‘Office’ with some AI features too. Meaning your Word or Exel skills will be AI-xcellent!

But look, Google on the other hand is not just sitting back. They are hard at work on their own AI, Bard. These two tech giants, are literally going head to head in the AI race. But at this stage it would seem that Microsoft has the upper hand, as ChatGPT is showing off its skills in a way that no one can resist. Strike up a conversation with the AI right here.
