Google to Supercharge Assistant with AI Similar to ChatGPT and Bard

Google plans to upgrade its Assistant with AI technologies like those in ChatGPT and Bard, starting with mobile applications. This "supercharged" Assistant may have the capability to answer questions using information gathered from across the web.

In preparation for this transformation, Google is streamlining the team behind Assistant, resulting in the elimination of certain roles. Axios reports dozens of workers have been laid off, but Google's leaders remain committed and optimistic.

Key takeaways:

• Google is pumping up Assistant with generative AI, exploring features akin to ChatGPT and Bard, starting with mobile

• Some muscle trimming at Google with a "small number" of roles being eliminated; dozens of workers laid off

• Big possibilities on the horizon: Assistant might tap into Bard's technology for web-based answers

• Privacy concerns linger: When and how will this tech appear in smart home products? Stay tuned.

Our Take: Google's upgrade of Assistant with generative AI could revolutionize our interaction with daily devices by adding conversational capabilities. Yet, users must be aware of possible privacy concerns.
