💈 Is Google crumbling under pressure?

This is Deep Work Daily, the good friend that spills the tastiest AI tea every morning.

What’s today’s tea? It’s chai.

Here’s the latest news and “AI can do that?!” finds of the day.

LATEST AI NEWS

🤷🏻‍♂️ Google’s AI event fell short and left people wanting more.

There was a lot of hype surrounding Google’s AI event, and it did not disappoint.

Everyone expected to be wow’d with their ChatGPT and Bing rival, Bard.

Instead, they shared updates on less-interesting stuff like image search and Maps, and barely mentioned Bard.

And they lost their phone during a demo.

Safe to say Google is making the AI race with Microsoft a lot more interesting than they’d like.

😬 Google’s ad for their new chatbot shows it giving a wrong answer…

As if Google’s event couldn’t have gone any more disappointing, it did.

During an ad showing the new Bard, people realized the answer it gave to a question was inaccurate.

Let that sink in. An ad that Google created to promote their own AI chatbot to take down ChatGPT…showed it’s not ready to take down ChatGPT.

The aftermath? Google’s shares dropped over 8%.

🚀 People are trying out the new Bing and having a blast with it.

Early testers of the new Bing & Edge browser are having a ball.

One of the testers asked the AI to write a resignation letter in a funny tone, and it delivered.

People reported Bing’s answers are more up to date than ChatGPT, and the tones are more accurate and distinguishable from another.

You can also ask Bing questions about the site you’re on, like finding TVs less than $300 while browsing TVs on Amazon.

Now that’s a time saver.
