"matter of a few months" / "on par offerings"... My (very very) limited impression is both of those statements aren't fair. Google/intel/etc have been working on lots of AI-related projects, even LLM efforts over years. It's not like any of these companies are bootstrapping LLMs or just posted their first AI engineer job a few months ago. I also don't think I'd call what they're offering "on par" with GPT-4. They're competitive, or impressive substitutes, but my personal tests of Bard at least aren't getting me as useful results as GPT-4. Source: too lazy to look up any. this is just my lame impression. feel free to downvote.
