Probably bilingual bot will be called ERNIE outside China, Wenxin Yiyan within.

“It’s a new day for search,” Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella said today. For 13 years now, Microsoft has tried to get you to use Bing, but you didn’t want to, so its global market share remains in the low single digits. Now, the company is pulling out all the stops in an effort to better compete with Google. Today, at a press event in Redmond, Washington, Microsoft announced its long-rumored integration of OpenAI’s GPT-4 model into Bing, providing a ChatGPT-like experience within the search engine.
The company is also launching a new version of its Edge browser today, with these new AI features built into the sidebar.
With a Microsoft event Tuesday expected to center on ChatGPT, the AI chatbot war is heating up.
Use words and images to generate new videos out of existing ones.
Realistically and consistently synthesize new videos by applying the composition and style of an image or text prompt to the structure of your source video. It’s like filming something new, without filming anything at all. No lights. No cameras. All action.

The ERNIE bot could be China’s most notable entry in the race to create lifelike AI bots.
One of the world’s biggest AI (artificial intelligence) and internet firms, Baidu, had its shares skyrocket more than 14 percent on Tuesday after the Beijing-based search engine titan announced it would launch its own ChatGPT-style service.

The company’s “ERNIE Bot” AI chatbot, also known as “Wenxin Yiyan” in Chinese, will complete internal testing and launch in March. Much excitement has developed towards what may be China’s most notable entry in the race to create lifelike AI bots.
Get your helmet on and be ready for the fallout from an emerging battle royale in AI. Here’s the deal. In one corner stands Microsoft with their business partner OpenAI and ChatGPT. Leering anxiously in the other corner is Google, which has announced that they will be making available a similar type of AI, based on their long-standing insider AI app known as Lambda sounds kind of techie, which is a stark contrast to “ChatGPT” (seems kind of light and airy). Google, perhaps realizing that a name embellishment was needed, has opted to put forth its variant of Lambda and anointed it with a new name “Bard”.
I’ll say more about Bard in a moment, hang in there.
Google has announced they will be releasing a generative AI app called Bard, based on their Lambda AI app. Microsoft is going to incorporate OpenAI ChatGPT into Bing. The AI wars are getting avidly underway. Here’s the scoop.
In case you haven’t heard, artificial intelligence is the hot new thing. Generative AI seems to be on the lips of every venture capitalist, entrepreneur, Fortune 500 CEO and journalist these days, from Silicon Valley to Davos.
To those who started paying real attention to AI in 2022, it may seem that technologies like ChatGPT and Stable Diffusion came out of nowhere to take the world by storm. They didn’t.
Since at least the release of GPT-2 in 2019, it has been clear to those working in the field that generative language models were poised to unleash vast economic and societal transformation. Similarly, while text-to-image models only captured the public’s attention last summer, the technology’s ascendance has appeared inevitable since OpenAI released the original DALL-E in January 2021. (We wrote an article making this argument days after the release of the original DALL-E.)
By this same token, it is important to remember that the current state of the art in AI is far from an end state for AI’s capabilities. On the contrary, the frontiers of artificial intelligence have never advanced more rapidly than they are right now. As amazing as ChatGPT seems to us at the moment, it is a mere stepping stone to what comes next.
What will the next generation of large language models (LLMs) look like? The answer to this question is already out there, under development at AI startups and research groups at this very moment.
