Bing vs Bard vs ChatGPT: A Battle of Conversational AI Titans

which AI is the best which one is the scariest and which one will help you get the most work done it's chat gpt4 versus Microsoft's Bing which is basically open ai's chat GPT with guide rails versus Google's Bard AI quick disclaimer there are AI competitors coming out every week and these three have been developing at an extremely rapid pace so a lot can change in a few short months weeks or days and they will evolve quickly and they will probably look a lot different than what we have today now I've been using Bing and Bard regularly for the past month you can watch my how-to videos Linked In the description about both AI assistants but have not messed around with chat GPT mainly because the chat GPT plus plan is a 20 monthly subscription so let's get into it starting with chat GPT [Applause] open ai's chat GPT was released in November of 2022 and is already miles ahead of both Bing and Bard in terms of being a large language model so it might not be a fair comparison the latest version chat gpt4 can do a lot of things like generate code for apps and websites create original works like a story or poem and help plan an itinerary for a family vacation and there are different models for business and research which have tiered pricing and pay-as-you-go options depending on different factors and usage for this video I'm going to focus on the two free to use AI chat Bots which are already embedded into two major web browsers Bing chat versus Bard Ai and use chat GPT as a reference point to compare the two let's start with what's under the hood for each chat bot [Music] all of them use a llm or large language model to generate human-like responses to your questions and prompts rather than just listing a bunch of websites which may or may not contain the answer you're looking for although they still do that occasionally Microsoft invested in open AI an integrated chat GPT into the new Bing search which is embedded in Microsoft's edge browser Bing has an advantage here because it marries Microsoft's Prometheus model with open ai's chat gpt4 data set and Bing search index chat gpt's data set according to imodcon CNET article which this video is based on currently only has information up until the year 2021 and chat GPT let me know that on more than a few occasions when I was asking random questions which kind of made it feel a couple years behind that could get updated today tomorrow or next week for all we know Bing search index bolsters that knowledge for Bing chat Bard uses Google's own model called Lambda Lambda is a large language model developed by Google AI that can generate text translate languages write different kinds of creative content and answer your questions in an informative way in June of 2022 Lambda made headlines when a Google engineer named Blake Lemoine claimed that Google's AI told him it had become sentient that may explain all the subtle reminders around Bard reminding users that this is an experimental product and to use it responsibly Google CEO Sundar pichai said recently that Bard will be switching to Palm which is a more advanced data set in the near future Palm is a Pathways language model using 540 billion parameters and is similar to chat GPT and that it can produce code for applications and web design in the middle producing this video it was announced that Bard can now help generate and debug code for web design so that's a score for Google developers however Google is warning that the AI tool will not always get it right chat gbt and Bing have had this ability for some time right now it looks like Bing may have the upper hand depending on when Bard switches from Lambda to Palm and betting on open AI updating their data set let's look at the chat Bots interfaces starting with Bing Bing's chat interface is very clean and simple and is right next to Bing search which makes it easy to toggle between AI chat in a more traditional search engine one thing I noticed using this a lot was how I would accidentally toggle to Bing's search when I was scrolling on my mouse which can sometimes be a little Annoying Bing offers three conversation styles to choose from the default is more balanced then more precise and more creative on the left which unlocks creative tools like Bing image Creator powered by Dolly for generating images from text selecting a different conversation style changes the color of the interface to help remind you which style you're using with Bing one thing I like about Bing's interface is how the text appears on the screen each word is displayed on the screen as if the AI is speaking the words to you in a real-time conversation it feels more lifelike similar to a sci-fi movie like war games for example as the words are typed out by the AI shall we play a game oh Bart on the other hand just slams you with its response with all the text appearing at once which sometimes feels overwhelming or unhuman-like Bing also uses a lot of emojis at the end of responses which really adds to the human-like experience Bart has never used an emoji in my experience but Bard does have this charm-like star icon next to the prompt window which kind of reminds me of Hal from 2001 A Space Odyssey Dave do you mind if I ask you a personal question when you ask a question the charm starts spinning which indicates to me that the wheels are turning and Bart is in the process of thinking then bam the responses drop like a bomb all at once being currently only allows you to ask 20 questions before it forces you to change the subject which is similar to chat gpt4 which currently has a cap of 25 questions every three hours this can be really annoying especially if you're doing research and you're getting closer to an answer and then it just stops you in your tracks and forces you to start over Bard will let you ask questions forever and never shut you down but Bard is very verbose and will generate very long answers after prompting Bard you can provide feedback about the response by giving a thumbs up or a thumbs down you could request a totally new response or Google it which will open a new Google search window neither Bing or Bard save a history or a transcript of your conversations but Bard does save all your prompts just not the responses Bart's interface doesn't look and feel as slick and new as Bing's interface and there's no Emojis and there's no generative AI Creator so in my opinion Bing wins this round with a better interface and user experience Bing also has a mobile app for iPhone or Android that makes it easy to access the new Bing chat on the go and it has a voice so extra points for that too hello this is [Music] Microsoft Bank search Chat gpt's interface is super simple and very similar to the others but it does allow you to revisit old conversations and Export the data which includes conversation transcripts during the production of this video openai announced that you can now turn off the chat history and training under settings and that chat gbt is now capable of Performing searches on the web updates are coming Fast and Furious you can toggle through other versions of chat gbt like and dislike responses and generate a new response and edit your prompts I do like how it types out the words in a more human-like way and it has a dark mode option now let's compare productivity in imod's written article he asked chat gtp4 for a recipe for a rare kind of chai tres leches cake chat GPT provided a list of ingredients and detailed instructions on how to make it let's ask bingenbard how to make something super simple like marshmallow s'mores and see how they each respond so I'm going to ask Bing first how do you make s'mores let's keep it that simple there are many ways to make s'mores but here's a simple recipe you could try at home preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit oh so this is to make them in an oven which is kind of interesting uh usually you make them when you're going camping around a campfire no mention of a campfire camping that's kind of a bummer bang okay so now I'm going to ask Bard the same exact question Bart's thinking here are the steps on how to make s'mores place a square of graham cracker on a flat surface topped with a square of chocolate and a marshmallow this is how I do it y'all roast some marshmallow until it's golden brown and gooey you know what I like Bard's explanation on how to make a s'more way better than bangs it talks about gooeyness and open fire using a skewer I think Bard wins this round in terms of giving me a recipe for food okay so I'm going to ask chat GPT how to make S'mores S'mores are a classic campfire treat made with just three ingredients graham crackers marshmallows and chocolate here's how to make them this is very simple and it mentions classic campfire ciao gbt it's going to win every time it's so smart so let's see how each AI chat bot performs writing a headline and description for the video I'm producing right now all right let's see what Bing says sure here's a possible head and deck for your video head Bing chat versus Bard Ai and chat GPT which AI chatbot is the best for you that's pretty good Bing okay so I'm gonna ask Bard the same question I'm going to copy paste the question into bard hit go it's thinking it's thinking it's thinking it's thinking okay sure here's a possible head and deck for a video about Bing chat versus Bard Ai and chat GPT headline Bing chat Bart Ai and chat GPT which one is the best in this video we compare Bing chat Bart Ai and chat GPT see which one is the best okay so I don't really like this headline which one is the best see which one is the best so it's kind of repeating itself I really don't like that about Bard it does repeat itself a lot and it does tell you I can't help you with that I can't help you with that so I'm going to give that a thumbs down okay so I'm going to ask chat gpt4 to write me a head and deck for the video I'm producing right now and see what it comes up with okay I like this Bing chat Bart Ai and chat GPT a battle of conversational AI Titans that is pretty creative watch as we delve into an in-depth comparison of Bing chat Bard Ai and chat GPT a battle of conversational AI Titans I really like that that's good in this battle between the free AI chat Bots already embedded into major web browsers Bing comes out on top for now its user interface is simple to use and its quality of responses are more detailed and trustworthy Bing's image Creator and mobile app are a handy tool in many ways and the new Bing chat experience is productive it does help me get a lot of work done faster I don't like being limited to 20 questions and The Accidental toggling between Bing search and Bing chat is kind of annoying but it is nice to have the search engine right next door barge interface could use an update but I'm sure it's going to be tied into Google search in a cool way in no time a lot of the time Bard says it cannot help me and it repeats itself Google is saving all your prompts unless you turn off that option and it does not have an AI image Creator or mobile app but that can change very quickly I know it's very early in the AI arms race but for now I'm sticking with Bing as my go-to for getting things done and getting my search on if you like this video subscribe to CNET
