But their first efforts in BARD were really not great. I'd just have left the bragging out in terms of how long. OpenAI and others have no doubt sent a big wakeup call to google. For a while it seemed like they had turned to focus an AI "safety" (remembering some big blowups on those teams as well) with papers about how AI might develop negative stereotypes (ie, men commit more violent crime then women?). That seems to have changed - this is very product focused, and I asked it some questions that in many models are screened out for "safety" and it responded which is almost even more surprising (ie. Statistically who commits more violent crime, men or women).
