Baidu Reportedly Will Launch AI Chatbot Similar To ChatGPT In March

JAKARTA - Apparently, Chinese technology giant Baidu Inc plans to launch an artificial intelligence chatbot (AI) similar to the OpenAI ChatGPT in March.

Sources familiar with this told Reuters that Baidu would launch the tool by embedding it in its main search service first.

Dubbed for the first time by OpenAI, a research company and creating DALLE.2 namely the AI art generator, ChatGPT is a natural language processing tool driven by AI technology. With this, users can start conversations like humans with chatbots.

ChatGPT is now increasingly attracting public attention because it is claimed that it will immediately take over its function from old search engines such as Search, Google's.

The sophistication of ChatGPT technology even led Microsoft to expand its long-term partnership with OpenAI through its new multi-year, billion-dollar investment, to $10 billion to OpenAI, makers of popular AI tools such as ChatGPT and DALL-E 2.

The deal will see Microsoft increase its investment in the development and implementation of a supercomputer system to assist with OpenAI research.

An important part of this deal means that Microsoft is an exclusive cloud partner for OpenAI, and Microsoft cloud services will empower all OpenAI workload across API, and research services.

In contrast to Microsoft, chief AI Meta scientist Yann LeCun admits he is not impressed with the Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based chatbot.

According to LeCun, such data-based AI or artificial intelligence (LLM) systems have been built in the past by many companies and research laboratories.
