Google's about to release their competitor to ChatGPT, and in this video we're going to break it down. In the past week, news has been pouring out about Google in relationship to AI, including this article from February 3rd where Google invested $300 million into Anthropic. They're a company that was founded by a few people that actually left OpenAI to go create a new AI startup, a startup that was initially funded by everybody's favorite crypto bro, Sam Bankman. Fried, the Google CEO, told investors on Thursday that it's planning to roll out its Lambda language model with search components very soon. Now the rumors going around are that Google is going to release their new chat on February 8th. And the day I'm releasing this video, February 6th, the CEO of Google announced Bard. Some standout notes from this article that just came out include our Transformer research project on our field defining paper in 2017 as well as our important advances in diffusion models are now the basis of many of the generative AI applications you're starting to see today. This is basically Google saying, hey, you know that ChatGPT and that stable diffusion and all that stuff that you've been seeing pop up in the AI space, We made that underlying tech. Now one major thing to note that differentiates Bard from ChatGPT is right here, it says it draws on information from the web to provide fresh, high quality responses. If you've used ChatGPT for any time now, you know that ChatGPT, its model was only updated through 2021 and it does not know how to search the web. Bard seeks to combine the breadth of the world's knowledge with the power, intelligence and creativity of our large models. So they're going to combine their large language model, similar to ChatGPT, but actually larger, with actual web search results to get more up to date current information. They also mentioned they're going to start onboarding individual developers, creators and enterprises so they can try our generative language API. So, so we're going to actually start seeing a whole bunch of other tools outside of Google leveraging Google's AI. So will we actually see Google's answer to ChatGPT in Google on February 8th? It's still unclear. Google says that it'll be rolling out within the next couple weeks, but what we do know is we should have quite a bit more information about it on February 8th. Saying all that, Google does have what they call the Google Test Kitchen, which is three different apps that they've given some early testers the ability to play around with and see some of the early capabilities of. And I actually managed to get my hands on that. Now, this is only available on mobile. I'm actually using this inside of a mobile emulator right now. And so we're going to take a look at what Lambda can do right now. And there are three tools available right now. One's called Imagine, one's called List it, and one's called Talk about it. So let's start with Imagine and we'll launch the demo here. And it says, explore your imagination. What should I do? Name a place and Lambda will offer paths to explore your imagination. What should I give feedback on if Landa generates interesting scene descriptions that are relevant to your idea? So let's go ahead and click Start. And then it says, imagine, I'm at Fill in the blank. And then some of the existence are an island of dinosaurs, a planet made of ice cream. So let's put I'm at the edge of a flat earth. Let's see what it says. So it says, you're at the edge of a flat earth. You're looking out at what appears to be a giant waterfall into space. All the stars and galaxies are swirling down into the waterfall. You can hear them as they swish and swirl and disappear into the darkness. So this is to give sort of descriptive writing, but it doesn't let me actually add additional prompts. Beyond that, it gives me suggestions for prompts to use. So now it wants some reinforcement. It wants me to let it know if it's nice, offensive, off topic or not. True. Let's just go ahead and say nice. And then it gives me some options of how to continue this imaginary scene. What does the ground feel like? How far does the waterfall go? Is that a shooting star? So let's say how far does the waterfall go? So the response, the waterfall goes on forever. It's the edge of the earth. So it goes into space. You're getting a little dizzy looking at it. And then it says, what does the water look like as it swirls down? What is that strange bird? Can I touch the waterfall? Can I touch the waterfall? Yes. The water feels solid and wet like water. And you can feel it pulling you toward the edge of the world. Be careful. What does it sound like? It sounds like a waterfall. It's pretty loud. You can hear the water as it swirls down away into space. But the sounds change as you get closer to the edge of the world, becomes much more ethereal. And then we can just keep on going like this, where it will continue to describe the Scene and you can go on and it'll describe the smells and the sights and the sounds and how it feels and just continue to describe the creative process. We don't have the ability to ask it our own questions. I can click more ideas down here and it'll give me more ideas for additional prompts, but I can't go in and type my own questions into this Imagine it tool. All right, so let's close out of this one and let's jump to this third one called Talk About It Dog Edition. I'll go ahead and launch the demo. What should I do? Roll with the conversation and see where it goes. It's just a fun kind of weird open ended chat. What should I give feedback on if lambda no matter what you ask, it keeps the conversation while bringing it back to the topic of dogs. So this is a conversational chatbot where we're chatting back and forth, but the chat is specifically about dogs. So I can ask it random questions and no matter what I ask it, it's always going to try to bring the conversation back to the initial topic of dogs. So let's go ahead and play around with this one. And I am talking to a tennis ball right now. So it says, hey, bouncing through the grass and these dogs are so cute. Have you ever wondered why dogs are so loyal to their owners? And then I can say, no, I've never wondered that. And it answers it anyway. They say, wow. I think it's because dogs are so social creatures. They were domesticated to be our companions, so they evolved to want to be with us so much. It's a fascinating relationship. I think it's so cool that dogs are so happy to be with us. Let's ask it something completely unrelated to dogs. What are your thoughts on ChatGPT? And you'll notice it brings the conversation back to dogs. I think ChatGPT is amazing. I'm a tennis ball, so it's so fun to be able to talk with humans about dogs. It's like I've been given a voice and I'm so excited to talk about dogs. Aren't you always covered in slobber? Yeah, I'm a tennis ball, so I'm covered in dog slobber. But I don't mind. It's really just a part of being a tennis ball. So I'll go ahead and rank this as nice because it did the job of constantly bringing the conversation back to dogs. This is a model where you can see the capabilities of chat, but this one was narrowly trained in on making sure that it brings the conversation back to dog. So imagine this same model being rolled out where you can talk about any concepts. Theoretically, you can sort of train it to always bring the conversation back to what you want it to initially be talking about. And then what I found coolest about what's available inside of the AI Test kitchen is this list it tool. It will break down steps of how to do something into the smallest possible steps. And then each of those steps you can break it down into smaller steps. And then each of those steps I'll just show you. Let's. Let's play around with it. So it says break down a complex goal or topic. What should I do? Name a goal or topic and see how much Lambda can break it down into multiple lists of subtasks. What should I give feedback on? If Lambda generates useful lists of subtasks, some of which you might not have thought of. So let's go ahead and start. And up here you can say anything that you want to do and it will try to break it down into the various subtasks of that thing. So the examples it gives, think about skills like learning instrument or goals like pick a hobby. So I want to be the best, best at disc golf. All right, so it broke it down into a list of steps. Be the best at disc golf. Buy the best disc golf discs. Practice your technique. Get the best shoes and clothes. Learn to throw a frisbee. Practice your putting. Practice your aim. All right, so buy the best disc golf discs. Let's press this little plus over here. And that's going to break it down into even more steps. Choose the right disc for your throw. Get a putter, mid range and driver. Learn about plastic types. Get a basket for your backyard. Find a course to play. What are the steps to choose the right disc for my throw? Let's break that down. Know your arm speed. Know your power level. Know your throwing style. Know your control level. Know your putting style. Know your distance level. How do I know my arm speed? I don't. I. I don't even know what that means. Let's find out. Use a radar gun. Throw a few. Get an average. Throw a few more to be sure. Use the PDGA formula. What the hell's the PDGA formula? Choose the disc that fits your arm speed. Choose the disc that fits your power level, your throwing style, your control level, your putting style. All right, let's go back up here and let's say we've already figured out the best disc golf discs. How do I practice my technique? Let's Break that down into smaller steps, putt the disc into the basket, throw a long distance drive, throw a mid range drive, throw a short drive, throw a high soft shot, throw a low hard shot, throw a spike Hyzer shot. And you can see what it'll do is it'll just keep on breaking down the steps further and further and further and further until there's really no questions left unanswered. Whatever it is that you're trying to figure out how to do, it's gonna break it down into the smallest steps for you. This, to me, is the coolest thing that's available in the Test kitchen, but I'm really excited to see what they roll out. We're going to all get the chance to play with these Lambda models pretty soon when Bard rolls out, hopefully on February 8th, but if not in the coming weeks, for sure. Now, if you want to get in and play around with the AI Test Kitchen, it is available. You have to join their wait list. If you go over to aitestkitchen. With google.com you can click the button to register your interest. It'll ask you a few questions here and then you can join the waitlist right here. And when it's available to you, they'll send an email. For me, it took a couple days. It was actually pretty quick. I joined the wait list and maybe 48, 72 hours later I got an email saying hop in and play around with the AI Test Kitchen. But like I said, you don't have to wait long for Bard because the news that's been rolling out is that it's coming out very, very soon and we're going to start to see these features pop into our Google search engine anytime now.
