2023 was the year of AI. Every month, we’ve seen new AI tools being launched, advancements in the field, upgrades, and more things that kept the field of AI moving.
Overhyped AI predictions weren’t missing in 2023 either. Throughout the year we heard things like “AGI was (or will soon be) achieved” or “AI will take everyone’s job.”
Here’s why I think they’re overhyped and doubt they’ll happen in the next years.
Almost every month there’s a new ChatGPT killer … at least that’s what we see on the media. The latest ChatGPT killer (by consensus) was Gemini Ultra, a tool that beat GPT-4 in the benchmarks but isn’t available yet to the public.
Even if Gemini Ultra is slightly superior to GPT-4, tech superiority doesn’t always translate to market dominance and Google knows that (probably that’s why they created too much hype with their demo).
I checked some articles and videos that claim Google will kill ChatGPT to find out how they came to such conclusions. Here are some of the arguments I found.
I don't think any of these arguments are enough to claim that Google will indeed kill ChatGPT.
Why? Well, #2 is not a good metric to say whether a product will kill its competitor. Recently, Google shares sank following reports that some of their AI Gemini Ultra demo was faked. This doesn’t mean Gemini Ultra is a bad model or that it can’t compete with GPT-4 but shows the consequences of Google overhyping its own product.
On the other hand, even if #1 is true, it’s not enough. Google might have the resources to create a tool to compete…
