China’s AI Beat ChatGPT + Google Gemini AI

The US Restricts ChatGPT Use in congress

The House of Representatives has implemented new rules regarding the use of ChatGPT, a chatbot, in congressional offices. The use of non-ChatGPT chatbots has been declared unauthorized. The decision was made to address privacy concerns, and lawmakers and staff are now limited to using ChatGPT Plus, the paid version with enhanced privacy features.

The product can only be used for research and evaluation purposes, with privacy settings enabled, and users are prohibited from pasting non-public text into the service. This move follows private companies like Samsung and Apple, which have restricted or banned the use of similar AI tools due to concerns about data leaks. House Chief Administrative Chief Catherine L. Szpindor stated that no other versions of ChatGPT or other large language models are authorized for use in the House currently.

This development comes shortly after Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer called for new legislation to regulate the AI industry, emphasizing the potential risks to national security and job loss. Several bills have already been introduced by lawmakers to regulate the industry, including measures to remove legal protections for AI companies and establish new rules through federal agencies or commissions.

Next AI ‘Gemini’ will be more powerful than ChatGPT says Google

Google's artificial intelligence subsidiary, DeepMind, is developing an AI system called Gemini that aims to surpass OpenAI's ChatGPT in terms of capabilities.

The CEO of DeepMind, Demis Hassabis, stated that Gemini, based on technology from DeepMind's 2016 AlphaGo model, will combine the strengths of AlphaGo with advanced language capabilities.

The system will incorporate new innovations, making it more powerful and versatile. While Gemini is still months away from its official launch, it is expected to require significant investment, amounting to tens or hundreds of millions of dollars.

Hassabis expressed confidence in the potential of Gemini and emphasized the need for further research on the risks associated with highly capable AI systems. This announcement follows Google's recent introduction of its own AI chatbot, Bard, which competes with ChatGPT but has faced internal skepticism and regulatory obstacles.

China's Baidu says its new AI beat ChatGPT on some metrics

Baidu Inc., China's leading search engine provider, has recently made an AI announcement that has created a buzz. The company revealed that its latest AI model, Ernie 3.5, has surpassed ChatGPT, on multiple key metrics. Baidu stated that Ernie 3.5 has achieved higher comprehensive ability scores compared to ChatGPT and has outperformed GPT-4 in several Chinese capabilities.

The statement from Baidu came in response to a test conducted by China Science Daily, a state newspaper, using datasets. These datasets serve as benchmarks for evaluating the performance of AI models. While Baidu has shared its impressive results, OpenAI has not yet responded to the announcement.

Baidu's new Ernie 3.5 model brings improvements in training and inference efficiency, positioning it for faster and more cost-effective iterations in the future. The company has also highlighted the support for external "plugins" in its new model. These plugins are additional applications that expand the capabilities of Baidu's AI, enabling it to handle specific scenarios with greater precision. For instance, the plugins can assist in tasks like summarizing long text or generating more accurate answers. This feature aligns with ChatGPT's introduction of plugin support earlier this year, showcasing the ongoing competition and innovation in the AI domain.
