ChatGPT, a controversial AI chatbot, is so effective that some individuals are worried for their jobs.
According to Jack Vernon, an AI expert and senior research analyst at IDC, most individuals definitely don’t need to worry about their jobs, but Google does.
Although ChatGPT is an AI chatbot, it is not a search engine and can give quick answers.
Although it doesn’t always deliver information that is very accurate, experts believe that it could one day outperform and even replace Google.
According to Vernon, some firms will be seriously endangered by ChatGPT. He made this statement to The U.S. Sun.
“One of which, actually, is Google. So, about 60% of Google’s revenue still comes from advertising on its search engine and I think what could happen very quickly is that say 40% of people, instead of using Google, are just using ChatGPT most of the time to answer questions.
“You can get the right answer not a list of 20 random websites that have paid to be at the top of the list.
“It’s very counter to their business model and actually I think the experience of ChatGPT is potentially a lot more efficient and faster and some people could get used to that very quickly.”
According to Vernon, ChatGPT has already caused Google to express concern.
The AI expert disclosed that the tech giant has established an internal committee to investigate the danger posed by the innovation.
He told us: “What’s most evident in this is that Google themselves have basically launched a huge internal team to work out how to counter the threat of the technology and I think it clearly says that they’re pretty worried about it.
“I don’t think social media but other websites that provide information or advice.”
We have reached out to Google for comment.
