The LaMDA team at Google has been working on the Apprentice Bard AI model, which appears to be very similar to ChatGPT in terms of operation, with employees currently testing it being able to ask questions and receive answers that are even more current than those provided by ChatGPT. Interestingly, the new Google chatbot based on LaMDA was asked whether there would be any layoffs in the company, to which it replied that Google is unlikely to carry out another round of layoffs in 2023, based on its access to the database. This is a clear indication of the power of the new AI model, as it is able to provide up-to-date and accurate answers to questions, whereas ChatGPT may not be able to provide the same level of accuracy due to not being updated since 2021.

In addition to Apprentice Bard, Google is also working on other chatbot projects, including Atlas, a project being developed by the company's cloud division. However, Apprentice Bard is the AI model that has priority over other projects in the short term, and it could potentially be integrated with some of Google's most popular services.

Moreover, Google is also testing an alternative search page to its popular search engine, which would allow users to ask questions and receive more human-like responses than typical search results. This service could be a response to Bing and Microsoft's plan to introduce ChatGPT in its browser.

Finally, while Google is working on new AI models, it has also been internally testing the capabilities of ChatGPT to compare its performance with other models. In one test, ChatGPT was asked a series of questions to determine whether it was eligible for a position as a level 3 programmer at Google, and it answered correctly. However, Google has emphasized that AI cannot replace programmers, as creativity and artistry are crucial components of developing great programs. Instead, they believe that AI can help programmers work more efficiently.

A new iOS bug is causing iPhones to crash when a specific sequence of four characters (""::) is typed into certain search fields, like the Settings app or App Library. The bug triggers Apple's Springboard to crash, briefly returning users to the lock screen. While it’s an annoying issue, it poses no security risk or data loss. Tests show that the bug affects iOS 17 more severely than iOS 18. Apple has not yet addressed the issue, so users are advised to avoid typing this sequence until a fix is released.
