Vint Cerf, the "father of the internet" says that businessmen should not rush investing in ChatGPT and other AI-powered apps.
The Google chief evangelist also issues this warning amid the popularity of these chatbots.
Currently, the topics around the use of artificial intelligence are taking over the internet and it's only becoming more controversial as more people get used to it.
Google Internet Evangelist Warns Entrepreneurs About AI
Vint Cerf, who is also known as the "Father of the Internet" issued a warning for entrepreneurs who think that AI will be viable for their businesses.
Vint Cerf has a warning for those entrepreneurs who will engage in AI-related business. He said that they should not rush into such deals given the controversy surrounding this subject.
According to a report by CNBC, Cerf told the attendees at the Mountain View conference that going into hasty decisions with AI investments should not be an option.
Clearly, ChatGPT and even Google Bard have lured people into thinking that an AI can do almost all things. However, Cerf clarified that there's a need to consider an ethical issue with this type of investment.
"Everybody's talking about ChatGPT or Google's version of that and we know it doesn't always work the way we would like it to," Cerf said on Monday, Feb. 13.
The warning from the "Father of the Internet" appeared right after Meta, Microsoft, and Google shared their plans to launch their own version of ChatGPT.
With the ever-evolving phase of artificial intelligence, people might assume that AI will produce only flawless results. However, it still fails to deliver desirable outcomes because of common mistakes.

Google Was Hesitant to Release Bard
Last week, Google confirmed that it has plans to release an AI-powered app that can compete with ChatGPT. With Bard, the company believes that it can be dominant in the competition.
Alphabet Chairman John Hennessy admitted that the search engine giant is not yet ready to launch Bard to the public.
Hennessy added that Google remains "hesitant" if it will push through the release of the ChatGPT rival chatbot, according to Business Today.
He continued that it might take one to two years before Bard became extremely polished as a "useful" AI tool for users.
Google thought that rushing into Bard is a good solution to rival Microsoft's own GPT tool. After the announcement, the stock of Alphabet surprisingly plunged to 9%.
Tech Times reported that the botched launch of Bard has triggered a lot of Google employees who think that Sundar Pichai downplayed the decision.
Some workers called this "rushed" and "un-Googley," a term for an unfurnished product that's not yet ready for broad public use.
Speaking of Bard, there's an advertisement for this experimental AI service that spits out misleading information.
According to the tweet, the James Webb Space Telescope snapped the first picture of an extraterrestrial planet. However, a simple Google search will tell you that it's not true.
