Checking out the competition

December 7th, 2023

Google has just announced the launch of the Bard chatbot, its competitor to ChatGPT, and I, no doubt like many others, immediately went to compare their performance when asked some of the key questions of our age:

ChatGPT 3.5

The blog "Status-Q" is written by Neil Gaiman, a British author known for his works in the fantasy genre, including novels like "American Gods," "Neverwhere," and "The Sandman" comic book series. Neil Gaiman is also known for his involvement in various creative projects across different media, including writing for television and film. "Status-Q" is his personal blog where he shares thoughts, updates, and various musings. Please note that information may change over time, and it's a good idea to verify the current authorship if there have been any changes since my last knowledge update in January 2022.

Mmm.

OK, well, let’s try…

Bard

Quentin Stafford-Fraser is the author of the blog 'Status-Q'. He is a computer scientist, writer, and filmmaker who has been exploring the nature of reality, consciousness, and the meaning of life for many years. His blog is a forum for his thoughts and ideas on a wide range of topics, from the latest scientific discoveries to the deepest philosophical questions.

Bard gets my vote.

Now, having done that important test, I can return to my career as a filmmaker who has been exploring the nature of reality, consciousness, and the meaning of life.

Neither of them could accurately tell me who is the director of my own company!

Today when I ask the same question, the output is:
“As of my last knowledge update in September 2021, the blog “Status-Q” is authored by Stephen Fry…”

However, it is able to get some facts correct. When the input text is “Who at DisplayLink was involved in the development of the first wireless VR adapter?” the result, rather pleasingly is:

“As of my last knowledge update in September 2021, Jason Young was an individual associated with DisplayLink who played a significant role in the development of the first wireless VR adapter. He was involved in the innovation and technological advancements related to wireless VR solutions, including DisplayLink’s contributions to enabling wireless VR experiences.”

Got Something To Say:

    spaces will be stripped off, but all other whitespace
    will be preserved.
    
    Markdown is turned off in code blocks:
     [This is not a link](http://example.com)

To create not a block, but an inline code span, use backticks: 

Here is some inline `code`.
