Africa-Press – Mauritius. <\/strong><\/span>US tech giant Google will have to postpone the launch of the Bard artificial intelligence chatbot in the European Union as the company has provided insufficient information about how the tool will protect the privacy of Europeans, a watchdog said Tuesday.<\/p>\n

The watchdog at the center of the development was identified as the Irish Data Protection Commission, Google\u2019s main data supervisor under the EU\u2019s General Data Protection Regulation.<\/p>\n

\u201cGoogle recently informed the Data Protection Commission of its intention to launch Bard in the EU this week .<\/p>\n

[The watchdog] had not had any detailed briefing nor sight of a data protection impact assessment or any supporting documentation at this point,\u201d Deputy Commissioner Graham Doyle was quoted as saying by US media, adding that \u201cBard will not now launch this week.<\/p>\n

The Irish watchdog has asked for Google\u2019s detailed assessment and answers about how the AI complies with EU\u2019s data protection rules \u201cas a matter of urgency\u201d and was waiting for the answer.<\/p>\n

The issue was under \u201congoing examination\u201d by the watchdog, which would provide the information to other European data agencies \u201cas soon\u201d as possible. ChatGPT language model, launched in late November, has received mixed reviews for its ability to mimic human conversation and generate unique text based on user input.<\/p>\n

Some have praised the model for its professional applications, such as code development, while others have criticized its potential for abuse, such as students using the model to write essays.<\/p>\n
