Google It does not plan to give up any space to OpenAI in the artificial intelligence race. Proof of this is the Latest Bard Updatein which he added the ability to understand YouTube videos. This will allow the chatbot to answer specific questions or extract information about a video.
The update notes they mention that Google engineers expanded integration with YouTube extension so that users can engage in a conversation with Bard about the content. You can ask the chatbot to suggest videos about cooking recipes and ask about the ingredients or a feature you find in the video.
The understanding YouTube videos is available in English and Spanish. In a test we asked him to show us videos with potato omelette recipes and he responded with four suggestions, some from the same channel. When asked about the ingredients list in one of the videos, Bard was able to write it down and add preparation steps and tips.
In the video “3 Foolproof Tricks for Making the Perfect Omelette,” Bard pulled out the tricks and offered a summary. This feature is eye-catching and could combat content that abuses the clickbait in the headline.
It is important to mention that this function not enabled for all content. In some cases it will respond that it does not have the necessary information, or it will make a text summary of the videos, but without including a link or slide. This is because Bard’s ability is in its first phase.
“We are taking the first steps in Bard’s ability to understand YouTube videos,” Google said. “That’s why we expanded YouTube to understand some of the video content so you can have a richer conversation with Bard about it.”
Bard is updated to deal with ChatGPT
After the integration of a new model in mid-September, Bard has received multiple updates to become competitive. Google’s AI-powered chatbot is available in more than 40 languages and includes a button to verify the veracity of the content on the web. Along these lines, users can modify the answers to make them simpler, more informal or more professional, depending on the language.
Another important feature is the possibility of viewing the response in real time. The latest tweak to Bard allows people to read content while it is being generated, keeping the creative flow free of interruptions. The chatbot also includes improvements to shared conversationswhere users can upload images or continue the chat from where they left off.
A few days ago, Google announced that it would open Bard to more age groups, starting with teenagers. The technology giant mentioned that Added proper protections to prevent unwanted contentas well as a tutorial and materials to bring young people closer to generative artificial intelligence.
Although Bard didn’t have the best start, Google has worked to update it and deal with ChatGPT. The road is still long, but its integration with services such as Gmail, Drive, or YouTube itself put it in a privileged position. In addition to this, generative artificial intelligence will merge with Google Assistant to make it more intuitive and personalized.
