Couldn't Google build the the world's most powerful NLP AI? They scraped the whole web and have DeepMind to pull it off on top of Google's powerful and massive data centers.
- wongarsu 6y agoThey probably could, but what for? They did develop BERT and use (used?) it for parsing search queries [1]. They probably use NLP models in the ranking algorithm too. But those use cases are about getting the best result possible within the throughput/latency requirements, which necessarily makes them less "powerful" than models like GPT that pay little attention to performance. https://blog.google/products/search/search-language-understanding-bert/ https://blog.google/products/search/search-language-understa...
- mrkramer 6y agoI forgot about BERT thx for reminding me. Google for example can monetize NLP AI framework just like they are monetizing Kubernetes: https://cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine https://cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine If OpenAI and Microsoft are licensing and monetizing GPT-3 why Google wouldn't want to compete with them when they have more data than them. Nothing can beat the amount of data that Google and Google Search have gathered over the last 20 years.
