Google executives had blocked the AI chatbot from public testing, citing concerns that it did not meet company standards.
Back then, Meena was trained on 40 billion words from social media conversations, while OpenAI's GPT-2, a predecessor to GPT-3 that powers the AI chatbot, had been trained on eight million web pages. OpenAI released a version for researchers to test it out, something that Meena did not get approval for.Nevertheless, work on the project continued, and Noam Shazeer, a longtime engineer at Google's Brain, the AI research unit, joined the team.
The project was renamed LaMDA, short for Language Model for Dialogue Applications, and Shazeer added the Transformer, a new type of AI model that allows powerful programs like ChatGPT to be built. Even though Google showcased LaMDA to the public, the chatbot was not. It made it to the news when engineerDe Freitas and Shazeer continued to work on the chatbot and, in 2020, managed to integrate it into Google Assistant. As tests were conducted internally, Google's executives did not allow a public demo of the technology, frustrating the two engineers.
CEO Sundar Pichai also intervened in the matter and asked the duo to continue working on LaMDA, but with no assurances of making the chatbot public, the duo left Google in 2021 and started their own company that providesGoogle is struggling to find the balance between taking a risk versus maintaining thought leadership.
Even as Pichai urges his current employees to focus on "building a great product," the search engine giant may have waited too long to get it right.
