Bard's multimodal abilities are impressive. It's worth noting that PaLM 2 does not offer multimodal capabilities, and your experience here, as you suggested, likely leans on Google's long history of building search across both text and image data.
In a reasoning and creativity shootout, I'm not convinced Palm 2 (and Bard) fairs well against Claude v2 and GPT-3.5.
Is anybody aware of Palm 2 being used in production other than with Bard? I see companies building and deploying with Claude* but have yet to come across Palm 2 users.
* I've fielded several requests to add Claude 2 API support to Zep, an open source memory store I co-authored. https://github.com/getzep/zep https://github.com/getzep/zep
- brianjking 3y agoDid Google ever indicate if this image multimodal ability is coming to the PaLM2 API?
- PeterStuer 3y ago"I'm not convinced Palm 2 (and Bard) fairs well against Claude v2 and GPT-3.5." From very early tests it seems hard to compare. On 'general' questions it is certainly less capable than ChatGPT-3.5, and not even in the same ballgame as GPT-4. But if it needs to integrate recent data without much elaboration, it is better than GPT-4 with linkreader plugin or the instance running on Bing. So I'd say it is more a shot across Bing's bow rather than an ChatGPT rival at this point.
