Keeping track of all the new AI chatbots from Google, Bing, Baidu, and others

The most high-profile of the chatbot announcements, Seattle-based Microsoft said Tuesday that it will integrate an updated software developed by OpenAI, the same company behind ChatGPT, into its search engine Bing. It didn't come as a huge surprise, since Microsoft made a multi-billion-dollar investment in OpenAI. The company held an invite-only event for journalists who got to try out the new "Prometheus" chat before it's released to the public. The takeaway from Semafor's Reed Albergotti: "It was a complete reorientation of Microsoft around this new breed of AI that has taken the world by storm." Google has been working on AI software behind the scenes for years, and announced this week that it plans to build a chatbot named Bard into its search function.
