Google's management has reportedly issued a 'code red' amid the rising popularity of the ChatGPT AI

• The rise of an artificial intelligence bot prompted a "code red" from the search engine giant.

• Some teams were directed to focus on building out artificial intelligence products.

• The move comes at a time when people are talking about whether or not a new search engine could be created.

The New York Times reported that a "code red" was issued by the management of the company after the launch of the chat bot.

According to the Times, teams in the Trust and Safety division have been directed to help with the development and launch of new artificial intelligence prototypes and products. According to the Times, some employees have been tasked to create products that are similar to OpenAI's DALL-E.

A person from the search engine company did not respond to the request for comment.

At a time when the future of the search engine is being debated by employees and experts alike, the move to build out its artificial intelligence product portfolio is happening.

According to Insider, Sridhar Ramaswamy, who oversaw the ad team between 2013 and 2018, said that in the year 2021, the amount of money generated by ads will be 81% of the total revenue.

Five days after its public launch, there were over 1 million users of ChatGPT, which can answer questions in a human-like way. Insider previously reported that users asked the chat bot to write a college essay, give coding advice, and even serve as a therapist.

Some have noticed that the bot is prone to making mistakes. It's not possible to fact-check what it says and can't distinguish between true and false information, according to experts. It can be used to make up answers.

The bot can generate responses that are racist and sexist.

The chat bot's high margin of error is one of the reasons why the public won't be able to use it. According to a recent CNBC report, there are concerns over "reputational risk" in the current state of the company.

"Bots are not something that people can use reliably on a daily basis," said the lab leader of the A.I. lab at the time of the release.

Experts told the Times that the search engine could be improved over time rather than taken down.

The annual developer conference, I/O, which is expected to take place in May, is expected to give us an early look at new artificial intelligence products.
