Last week was a game-changer for the technology sector with the release of AI-powered versions of Alphabet and Microsoft in the online browsing and internet search industries.
However, these solutions are not yet accessible to the general public. As expert evaluators are still making sure they are safe and reliable. ChatGPT, the solution at the center of all the recent AI hype is currently only available to US citizens. At least in the case of its recently released premium subscription package.
This is a frustrating situation for users from other countries who want to try out the features that have made this software so well-liked. NeevaAI, a competitor AI-powered search engine, has introduced a product in response that customers in some international markets can already use.
According to Gizmodo, the NeevaAI search engine is now accessible in Spain, the United Kingdom, Germany, France, and Canada. The business’ search engine—not the AI-powered one—will also shortly be made available in New Zealand and Australia.
What is NeevaAI?
The company introduced NeevaAI, an ad-free search engine, in January of this year. US users were the only ones who could use it at first. The AI-powered search engine is made to give reports and answers to user inquiries that cite the sources from which the data was gathered.
The application also draws on up-to-date sources. To create an index that the AI tool can use to deliver the most accurate and recent information. Hundreds of millions of pages are indexed daily by one of the largest automated search stacks thanks to the company’s creation.
Neeva asserts that ChatGPT differs from its generative AI solution due to ChatGPT’s use of an OpenAI model. Whose knowledge base ends in 2021, and these two benefits. Furthermore, ChatGPT is not intended to reference the sources it refers to generate its ostensibly intelligent responses.
The company plans to use NeevaAI to “transform search from a game of ten blue links to an experience that combines the best of ChatGPT with the authorities and timelines of search.”
Neeva doesn’t publish ads within its search results. Which can be considered obtrusive by users who have to scroll down – sometimes for a while – to access non-sponsored websites. Instead, Neeva relies on subscription fees.
Neeva and others plan to dominate Google for a long time
The software worked “pretty impressively,” according to the TechCrunch journalists who tested it for a few weeks. One intriguing feature they stated is that whenever the AI tool does not have enough data to respond. It will provide a list of websites that contain data that users can look at to determine the responses on their own.
The Chief Executive Officer of Neeva, Sridhar Ramaswamy, described the capabilities of the solution to the tech-focused online magazine as “roughly working for queries that we can locate authoritative websites that answer that question.”
In the meantime, Ramaswamy noted in a recent blog post. Where the company officially announced the launch of NeevaAI in Spain: “Google has dominated the search engine industry. Maintaining over 90% market share. By utilizing AI and improving the search and browsing experience for users, Neeva will question this dominance.
Google is swiftly adapting to the changes that the internet search landscape is undergoing. As a result of the introduction of ChatGPT, far from disregarding them. This can be seen in the quick launch of Bard, an AI-powered alternative to Google Search. So, that aims to give consumers of the most widely used search engine in the world a new experience.
Additionally, Microsoft recently unveiled its AI-enabled version of Bing, which makes use of its model dubbed Prometheus. And it was developed as a result of its long-standing collaboration with OpenAI.
