Google staff are being told they may have to step in to correct any wrong queries from its new artificial intelligence (AI)-powered chatbot function, Bard. The company has also advised they should not claim the chatbot has had “human-like experiences” or have it show “emotion”.
Employees received an email on Wednesday from the company’s vice president for search, Prabhakar Raghavan, which included a dos and don’ts list, according to reports.
It outlined how employees should test Bard internally and fix its automated responses. Those looped into the guide were advised they should prioritize answers on topics they understand and have good knowledge on.
CEO Sundar Pichai added Google employees should spend “at least four hours” with Bard to get to grips with the tech.
Bard is just one competitor in the relatively new field of hyper-intelligent chatbots, most of which have integrated ChatGPT to stay on the cutting edge of AI-powered searches.
