Generative AI: The New Threat to Human Intelligence?

Google is not alone in this AI revolution. Microsoft recently partnered with OpenAI, a company that transitioned from a non-profit startup to a for-profit AI venture. This collaboration aims to enhance Microsoft’s search engine, Bing, with generative AI powers. This move puts Microsoft on par with Google, the formidable force based in Mountain View, California.

However, Google did not take long to respond to Microsoft’s AI integration. As predicted by our US Editor-in-Chief Lance Ulanoff months ago, Google quickly unleashed its own AI breakthrough with LaMDA. The AI arms race is now in full swing, with tech companies willing to forgo caution and social responsibility in pursuit of AI dominance. They aim to embed AI assistants into every facet of our lives, from emails to navigation to ordering pizza.
