LONDON, Feb 8 (Reuters) - Alphabet Inc lost $100 billion in market value on Wednesday after its new chatbot shared inaccurate information in a promotional video and a company event failed to dazzle, feeding worries that the Google parent is losing ground to rival Microsoft Corp.
Alphabet shares slid as much as 9% during regular trading with volumes nearly three times the 50-day moving average.They pared losses after hours and were roughly flat. The stock had lost 40% of its value last year but rallied 15% since the beginning of this year, excluding Wednesday's losses.
Reuters was first to point out an error in Google's advertisement for chatbot Bard, which debuted on Monday, about which satellite first took pictures of a planet outside the Earth's solar system.
Google has been on its heels after OpenAI, a startup Microsoft is backing with around $10 billion, introduced software in November that has wowed consumers and become a fixation in Silicon Valley circles for its surprisingly accurate and well-written answers to simple prompts.
Google's live-streamed presentation on Wednesday morning did not include details about how and when it would integrate Bard into its core search function. A day earlier, Microsoft held an event touting that it had already released to the public a version of its Bing search with ChatGPT functions integrated.
Bard's error was discovered just before the presentation by Google, eVDen Eve nAKLiyAT based in Mountain View, California.
"While Google has been a leader in AI innovation over the last several years, they seemed to have fallen asleep on implementing this technology into their search product," said Gil Luria, EvdEn Eve NaKliYaT senior software analyst at D.A.Davidson. "Google has been scrambling over the last few weeks to catch up on Search and that caused the announcement yesterday (Tuesday) to be rushed and the embarrassing mess up of posting a wrong answer during their demo."
Microsoft shares rose around 3% on Wednesday, and were flat in post-market trading.
Alphabet posted a short GIF video of Bard in action via Twitter, promising it would help simplify complex topics, but it instead delivered an inaccurate answer.
In the advertisement, Bard is given the prompt: "What new discoveries from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) can I tell my 9-year old about?" Bard responds with a number of answers, including one suggesting the JWST was used to take the very first pictures of a planet outside the Earth's solar system, or exoplanets.The first pictures of exoplanets were, however, eVDEn Eve nakLiYAT taken by the European Southern Observatory's Very Large Telescope (VLT) in 2004, as confirmed by NASA.
"This highlights the importance of a rigorous testing process, something that we're kicking off this week with our Trusted Tester program," a Google spokesperson said.Should you beloved this informative article and you desire to be given more info relating to EvdeN EVE NAKliyAt kindly stop by our own web-site. "We'll combine external feedback with our own internal testing to make sure Bard's responses meet a high bar for quality, safety and groundedness in real-world information."
FORMIDABLE COMPETITOR
Alphabet is coming off a disappointing fourth quarter as advertisers cut spending.
The search and advertising giant is moving quickly to keep pace with OpenAI and rivals, reportedly bringing in founders Sergey Brin and Larry Page to accelerate its efforts.
"People are starting to question is Microsoft going to be a formidable competitor now against Google's really bread-and-butter business," said King Lip, chief strategist at Baker Avenue Wealth Management, which owns Alphabet and Microsoft shares.
Lip cautioned, though, that concerns about Alphabet may be overblown, saying: "I think still Bing is a far, far cry away from Google's search capabilities."
The new ChatGPT software has injected excitement into technology firms after tens of thousands of job cuts in recent weeks and executive pledges to pare back on so-called moonshot projects.AI has become a fixation for tech executives who have mentioned it as much as six times more often on recent earnings calls than in prior quarters, Reuters found.
The appeal of AI-driven search is that it could spit out results in plain language, rather than in a list of links, which could make browsing faster and more efficient.It remains unclear what impact that might have on targeted advertising, the backbone of search engines like Google.
Chatbot AI systems also carry risks for corporations because of inherent biases in their algorithms that can skew results, sexualize images or even plagiarize, as consumers testing the service have discovered.Microsoft, for instance, released a chatbot on Twitter in 2016 that quickly began generating racist content before being shut down. And EvDEN EVe nAkLiyat an AI used by news site CNET was found to produce factually incorrect or plagiarized stories.
At the time of writing, the Bard ad had been viewed on Twitter more than a million times.

Disney's Bob Iger is planning to lay off 7,000 employees in a 'significant transformation' to cut back costs as he eliminates some of his predecessor's efforts.
On Wednesday, Iger announced his plans to restructure the company, effectively eliminating the Disney Media and Entertainment Distribution group set up under former CEO Bob Chapek.
The new structure, according to the , will have only three divisions, Disney Entertainment — which will include film and TV assets as well as Disney+; ESPN — which will include ESPN and ESPN+; and Parks, Experiences and Products — which will include theme parks and the consumer products team.
As part of that changeup, Disney will cut 7,000 jobs — representing a little over three percent of its global workforce.The cuts are likely to predominantly affect the entertainment and ESPN divisions, despite the company beating analyst's expectations for the fourth quarter of 2022.
The changeup comes as Gov.Ron DeSantis and the company faces a proxy battle with an activist investor seeking to gain a seat on the board.
Disney CEO Bob Iger is planning to lay off some 7,000 employees as he restructures the company
In announcing the new structure Wednesday, Iger likened it to changes he made at the media giant in 2005, when he first became CEO, and Evden eVe nakliyat in 2016, when Disney announced a shift to streaming as it bolstered its assets with the acquisition of 21st Century Fox.
'Our new structure is aimed at returning greater authority to our creative leaders and making them accountable for how their content performs financially,' he said on an earnings call.
'Our former structure severed that link and must be restored,' he continued, noting: 'Moving forward, our creative teams will determine what content we're making, how it's distributed and monetized and how it gets marketed.'
Under the plans, Alex Bergman and Dana Walden will co-chair the Disney Entertainment division, with Jimmy Pitaro continuing to lead ESPN and Josh D'Amaro continuing to lead parks and experiences.
And, in addition to the planned layoffs, Disney CFO Christine McCarthy also said the company is targeting $5.5billion in cost savings, including $3billion related to future content savings with the remaining $2.5billion coming from existing marketing, staffing and technology costs.
But the move comes as Disney beat earnings expectations.
The company announced on Wednesday that it earned $1. If you beloved this article and you also would like to obtain more info with regards to eVdeN eve nAkliyaT i implore you to visit our internet site. 28billion, or 70 cents per share, in the three months through December 31, up from a net income of $1.1billion, or 60 cents per share a year earlier.
Excluding one-time items, Disney earned 99 cents per share.Analysts, on average, were expecting adjusted earnings of 78 cents per share, according to FactSet.
In total, eVdeN eVE NaKLiyAT revenue grew eight percent to $23.51 billion from $21.82 billion a year earlier. Analysts were expecting revenue of just $23.44 billion.
The company also said Disney+ ended the quarter with 161.8million subscribers, down one percent since October 1, while Hulu and ESPN+ each posted a two percent increase in paid subscribers.
Following the news, shares of Disney rose three percent in after-hours trading.
Much of the layoffs are expected to be in the entertainment division, which includes Disney+, as well as ESPN, which includes ESPN+
Disney ended the fourth quarter of 2022 with $1.28billion, or 70 cents per share
Disney shares ticked upwards following the earnings call on Wednesday
But Disney has been under fire recently by billionaire investor Nelson Peltz, who has claimed Iger is not fit to lead the company, citing falling revenues.
Last week, Peltz — the founder of Trian Management — sent a letter to Disney shareholders on Thursday asking them to vote for him rather than longtime board member Michael BG Froman.
It was just the latest move Peltz made in his ongoing war with Disney, after previously filing paperwork with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission for a seat at the Mickey Mouse table and launching a campaign across social media.

'After a friendly 45 second conversation with the employee in an open lobby that was witnessed by others, multiple witnesses have provided statements verifying Michael was a gentleman and behaved just like you see on television,' reads a statement from McCathern, the Texas law firm representing Irvin. 'He was being gracious with fans, taking pictures and speaking with anyone who wanted some of his time.'
Marriott spokespeople have not responded to DailyMail.com's request for comment.
Michael Irvin has filed a $100 million lawsuit against a woman who claimed the Cowboys legend made an inappropriate comment towards her this week at an Arizona hotel, resulting in his dismissal from NFL Network's ongoing Super Bowl LVII coverage
Renaissance Hotels' parent company, Marriott, is also named in the lawsuit for allegedly scheming to make Irvin the next victim of ' cancel culture.' The alleged incident is believed to have taken place at the Renaissance Hotel location in Glendale, Arizona (pictured)
After returning to his room following the brief exchange with the woman, Irving claims he was woken up by hotel staff, who removed him from the hotel without explanation.
'Plaintiff was judged guilty without even knowing the accusations,' the lawsuit reads. 'A few days later, Plaintiff was removed from his scheduled programming, and essentially ''kicked off the air'' and ''cancelled'' due to these allegations.'
In his lawsuit, Irving claims he has witnesses who can support his statement that he and Doe 'casually exchanged pleasantries,' adding that the 56-year-old 'shook her hand, and went to his room alone.'
The filing also claims that the hotel refused to listen to eye-witness accounts of the interaction.
What's more, the hotel manager is accused in reporting the incident to the NFL 'with the intention of damaging that relationship and canceling [Irvin].'
'Evidently, as Plaintiff was sleeping one of the managers of the Hotel reported false information to the NFL about the Plaintiff accusing him of improper behavior towards a hotel employee,' the lawsuit reads. 'The NFL responded by removing Plaintiff from all scheduled programming surrounding the Super Bowl. Plaintiff's representatives have reached out to the hotel and even met in person to obtain clarity about this situation and provide witnesses and resolve this matter before Plaintiff's reputation could be damaged any further—but to no avail.'

Irving says he's already had appearances canceled as a result of the accusations.
'It is clear Michael is the latest victim of our cancel culture where all it takes is an accusation to ruin a person's life,' McCathern said in the firm's statement. 'Michael looks forward to clearing his name in court and hopes the Court of public opinion will see the truth come out as well.'
'When I came into the hotel [on Sunday night], they asked what I did and I said, ''I just went straight to the room,''' Irvin said, as quoted by
'So they moved my hotel, and I said, ''What's going on, guys? What's happening? Why are we moving hotels?''
'They said, ''Well, last night you walked in, you talked to somebody.'' I said, ''I didn't talk to anybody. I went straight to the room.''
'And then they showed it on camera that I did talk to somebody. I talked to this girl for about a minute. I don't know what — they didn't show it to me. They told it to me. I didn't see it. But that's why they moved me, because I guess the girl said I said something to her within that minute that we talked, and so they moved me.'
'That's why I'm kind of hiding to wait and see how everything comes down,' Irvin added. 'It was a minute meeting somewhere in the lobby. I don't even remember it really because I had a few drinks, to tell you the truth.'

Irvin told reporters in July of 2017 that he has lost 'millions' of dollars in endorsements and business deals as a result of the claims made against him.He also said he was 'devastated' by the allegations, partly because they were made by a young woman he considered to be a friend.

Authorities arrested five members of Los Mexicles following a high-speed chase and seized a cache of rifles and ammunition.
The United States Consulate in Ciudad Juárez advised US citizens in the border town to shelter in place after reports of gunfire Monday night.
A Monday afternoon gun battle at a housing complex left seven people dead, including two cops, while security forces hunted down the fleeing inmates.No arrests were reported.
The Cereso No. 3 prison director, Alejandro Téllez, was fired and placed under investigation Tuesday, the Chihuahua State Attorney General's Office said in a statement.
At least 200 Los Mexicles jailed members were loaded onto buses in the early hours Tuesday and transported to Abraham González International Airport, where they boarded two National Guard flights to other federal jails.
Mexico's Secretary for Security and Citizen Protection, Rosa Rodríguez, had announced Monday that plans were underway to transfer high-risk inmates from the Cereso No.3 state prison to other penitentiaries in the country to prevent further attacks.

The Cereso No. 3 state prison was overpopulated by 123% at the time of the attack, eVDEN eVe NakliyAt National Commission of Human Rights director, Nestor Armendáriz, told Radio Formula.
The agency's 2021 National Diagnosis of Penitentiary Supervision found that the prison was severely affected by overcrowding, lack of personnel and that not enough programs were being offered to prevent addiction and voluntary detoxification.
Saskia Niño del Rivera, cofounder of Reinserta, a non-profit that works with reintegrating and readapting convicts into society, called on the Mexican government to shut down the detention facility.
'That prison has to be closed, it does not have the infrastructure to function, it does not have the elements, enough trained guards,' Niño de Rivera told El Universal newspaper.
The activist pinned the prison's unsavory conditions on the reality of the high presence of convicts who are members of the Los Jaliscos, Los Artistas Asesinos, Los Golfos and Los Mexicles street gangs.
'It is a very complicated prison because of the way in which it has been divided by dormitories, and the complexity of closing them so that the same gangs do not clash internally is extremely complex,' she said.

Niño del Rivera added that Cereso No. 3 state prison officials were simply overwhelmed because they were dealing 'with inmates who have levels of crime and crime leadership capacity much higher than what a state has to control.'
The prisoners' free reign allowed them to set up 10 jail cells that were equipped with electronic goods, such as televisions, and one of them had its own jacuzzi, according to Defense Minister Luis Cresencio.
Investigators searching Piñón's cell found 10 firearms, 20 kilos of drugs, liquor and a safe deposit box with $87,000.
Chihuahua State Attorney General Roberto Fierro vowed to restore the prison's security system within three months while adding that they would seek to prosecute any official or guard involved in the attack that allowed Piñón and the other 29 inmates to escape.
'Who did see it and who was allowing these actions, those are the ones who are going to bear the punishment because this should not have happened,' Fierro said.'A series of corruption was discovered inside the prison; it must be said as it is.'
Piñón took the Los Mexicles top leadership spot after Jesús 'El Lalo' Soto was transferred out of the Cereso No. 3 state prison in February 2020.
He joined the gang as an 18-year-old in 2007 and was involved in numerous criminal incidents, including kidnappings, in Ciudad Juárez, where the faction acted as the main enforcer for Joaquín 'El Chapo' Guzmán's old Sinaloa Cartel.

Guns and bullets are seen in front of the Cereso No.3 state prison that were recovered by the security forces Sunday after the Los Mexicles street gang launched an attack and freed their leader, Ernesto 'El Neto' Piñón
Piñón was found guilty of kidnapping and murder in 2010 and sentenced to 224 years in prison.
Authorities say he was also involved in ordering a wave of assaults throughout Ciudad Juárez on August 11 that left 11 people dead, 20 injured and multiple vehicles and business torched.
At the same time, he organized a riot at the prison in an attempt to flee, but security forces were able to regain control.
The citywide assaults were part of a rift reportedly sparked by Los Mexicles' fallout with the Sinaloa Cartel faction that is overseen by Los Chapitos - El Chapo's children - as the gang formed new alliance with Los Aztecas, the armed wing of the Juárez Cartel.
Los Mexicles had also joined forces with the Caborca Cartel, the criminal organization founded by infamous jailed drug lord, Rafael Caro Quintero, who is awaiting extradition to the United States, where he is accused of the 1986 kidnapping and murder of Drug Enforcement Administration agent Kiki Camarena.
The Caborca Cartel is also at odds with Los Chapitos.
Vega served as Piñón's main confidant at the prison, where they both shared a cell.
He was deported to Mexico in September 2015, almost four years after he was arrested at an El Paso, Texas, fried chicken restaurant.
Vega was detained December 27, 2011 at Church's Chicken where he was employed as a cook a year after he fled from Mexican authorities after the ambush of the prison van he was being transported in, according to U.S.Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
He and seven other Los Mexicles gang members abducted Natividad Torres at his Ciudad Juárez home on September 15, 2009.
The kidnappers sought a return of $47,000 in exchange for Torres' release but ended up settling for just $700, a television and a 2008 Toyota.Torres was shot four times on September 15 and released the following day.
He died October 21 as a result of the gunshot wound and Vega and four other kidnappers were arrested the next month.
Vega was sentenced to 42 years for kidnapping and murder.
