The head of search engine Google warned about the pitfalls of artificial intelligence in chatbots in a newspaper interview published on Saturday, as Google’s parent company Alphabet battles to compete with blockbuster app ChatGPT.
“This kind of artificial intelligence that we are talking about now can sometimes reach something that we call cognitive,” Prabhakar Raghavan, senior vice president at Google and head of Google Search, told the German newspaper Welt am Sonntag.
“It then presents itself in such a way that a machine receives a definite but complete answer,” Raghavan said in comments published in German. One of the important tasks, he added, is to reduce this.

Alphabet Inc introduced Bard, its own chatbot, earlier this week, but the software shared inaccurate information in an internal promotional video. a gaffe The company hit $100 billion in market value on Wednesday.
Alphabet, which is still running human tests on Bard, has not announced when the app could be released.
“Obviously we feel a sense of urgency, but we also feel a lot of responsibility,” Raghavan said. “We certainly don’t want to mislead the public.”
