Bard’s Incorrect Response Costs $100bn loss to Google

The software behemoth and Google’s competitor, Microsoft, held a press conference the day before, boasting that a version of Bing search with ChatGPT features integrated had already been made available to the general public, according to Reuters. Alphabet Inc. promised on Twitter that a brief GIF video showing Bard in action would help explain complex subjects, but it actually provided an incorrect response.

The JWST may have been used to capture the first images of a planet outside of the solar system, or exoplanets, according to one of Bard’s responses. But as NASA has confirmed, it was the Very Large Telescope (VLT) of the European Southern Observatory that captured the first images of exoplanets in 2004.
