As part of the chatbot race, Russia has decided to launch its own platform into the market. Called GigaChat, the Russian chatbot allows you to hold a conversation, answer questions and generate images.
The idea is to be a direct competitor to OpenAI’s ChatGPT, and the announcement was made by Russian bank Sberbank. According to information from Reutersinitially, only those who receive an invitation via Telegram will be able to learn more about GigaChat.
In a statement, the company said that the GigaChat It is its own multimodal neural network. Therefore, this new platform would have the same capabilities as ChatGPT, but with some new features, since it incorporates the Kandinsky 2.1 model.
GigaChat must be smarter than ChatGPT
One of the highlights of the announcement is the information that GigaChat was created specifically to work in a much more intelligent way and is based on a network called Neural Omnimodal Network With Knowledge-Awareness (NeONKA). This set of networks brings together numerous neural networks and adjustments by humans.
In addition, the focus is on training GigaChat, based on the Chrisofari Neo supercomputer. It was developed by SberDevices and SberAI. Another institution that collaborated on the creation of this chatbot was the AI Research Institute, known as AIRI.
The main idea behind GigaChat is that it will be available to scientific scholars, students, and developers in version 3.5. It is made up of 13 million parameters, slightly fewer than GPT-3 and GPT-4, but still capable of competing with the main chatbot.
Since the creation of ChatGPT, it has become much more common to see the creation of numerous chatbots to compete side by side with OpenAI’s version. The focus on this type of artificial intelligence began when students discovered its existence and began using it to write essays in the United States.
