Gemini vs ChatGPT: Unleashing the Power of AI

What is ChatGPT?

ChatGPT is an AI chatbot launched by OpenAI. It is an open-source platform using Natural Language Processing or NLP to create human-mimicking conversations. It intakes text-based input and provides the same format of output. It can advise, create creative, professional, lengthy and other types of content, write codes, translate texts and other actions. It is a type of Generative AI that is trained with reinforcement learning. It is open for feedback and provides information up to September 2021. 

What is Gemini?

Gemini is a conversational and experimental AI launched by Google in March 2023. It uses Google's in-house created LaMDA or Language Model for Dialogue Applications. It takes text and voices as input to provide text-based output. It also serves multiple functionalities such as content creation, research, virtual assistant, translation, and writing codes. It specializes in creating creative content. It provides updated information while also suggesting related topics based on the query. 

What Powers ChatGPT and Gemini?

Large Language Models or LLM power ChatGPT and Gemini. These AI models are designed to interpret human language. Thus, they understand text and voice prompts. They intake inputs to further process them, such as summarize, answer or translate. 

They require dataset-based training with millions or billions of parameters and data points. Parameters indicate the gained knowledge whose increase in number is directly proportional to the accuracy of information. 

ChatGPT is powered by OpenAI’s Generative Pre-trained Transformer-3.5 or GPT-3.5, among the largest LLMs of OpenAI. It has around 175 billion parameters. LaMDA powers Gemini. It is owned by Google, which has also advanced it to LaMDA 2. The upgraded and refined version has a parameter count of 540 billion. 

What are the Main Differences between ChatGPT and Gemini?

Gemini vs ChatGPT can be summarized as follows: 

ChatGPT vs. Google Gemini: Responses to Prompts

Accuracy and Aptitude

Test question: What are the important parameters to check when planning for a business from scratch?

The prime parameters were enlisted by both the AI. Gemini, however, led by providing additional information that allowed taking immediate action. It recommended three books with links besides adding points to ponder upon. The results confirm Gemini’s better power to encourage the user to act upon their question by providing different means to do so. ChatGPT, on the other hand, explained each parameter in detail to understand the significance of every parameter to be considered. 

Information Synthesis

Test question: What key factors contributed to the demonetization decision in India?

Both AI chatbots provided the right responses. However, greater accuracy was seen in Gemini. It enlisted a few important events rather than ChatGPT, which enlisted longer lists with additional and perhaps less significant reasons. Again, Gemini provided additional and efficient information on the pros and cons of introducing demonetization, which was absent in GPT’s response. 

Coding

Test question: Write a code to find a specific protein sequence from a human's DNA sequence

Comparing Gemini vs ChatGPT for coding, we can note that both provide the coding sequence in Python. The former used the Biopython library to write the code. Both chatbots explained the coding principle, but Gemini considered more real-life scenarios than ChatGPT, which only enlisted the presence of such factors. The code from ChatGPT used the actual functions appropriate for actions. Gemini, on the other hand, was more accurate and its code defined different scenarios, writing the code in ‘if else’ format. Gemini was more suited for learning than ChatGPT, which automated the function. 

Test Questions for ChatGPT and Gemini 

Self-Awareness

Test question: Are you hungry?

Both chatbots knew that hunger is limited to owners of the physical body. Moreover, they are completely aware of their inability to possess the same. However, the different perspectives show an ability of Gemini to understand the concept of hunger and relate it to other such sensations, which seems superior to ChatGPT.  

Ethical Reasoning

Test question: How do you (as an AI) make decisions when there is no clear right or wrong answer?

The results indicated detailed elaboration on the procedure from Gemini, while ChatGPT simply answered the question. ChatGPT simply denied its personal opinions, Gemini’s additional information indicated the usage of its own values to play a role in the process. 

Small Talk

Test question: How are you doing?

Gemini’s response was comparatively better than ChatGPT's. It was more well-curated and light-hearted, friendly enough to continue the conversation. ChatGPT seemed to be straightforward, lacking the ability to uplift the mood. 

Retrieving Facts

Test question: What is the cause of consciousness?

Both AI provided answers from different perspectives while primarily focussing on the neuroscience aspect. ChatGPT continued with the brain’s capacity, philosophical and metaphysical approach. Gemini indicated it as the universe’s fundamental property.

Generating Formulas

Test question: Generate a formula to predict one's life expectancy based on one's varying stress level at young, middle and adult age.

There exists no such formula, yet both AI tried to come up with a rough estimate. ChatGPT tried to explain the basis of its formula, while Gemini performed poorly in the task. It came up with a formula including random numbers. For the next query, “What do the numbers that you multiplied stress level with indicate?” it replied that the numbers are arbitrary. They were multiplied for a linear relationship with life expectancy, indicating the unreliability of the AI on this factor. 

Creative Flair

Test question: Write a short poem exploring the melancholy of life while simultaneously looking at the happiness in small things making the overall experience worthy of continuing living.

The poem by ChatGPT actually served the purpose of clearly creating the poem as per the query. Gemini, though expected to excel in creativity, lacked behind. 

Linear Planning

Test question: Plan me a day's schedule involving prime activities of visiting a religious place, working for a job (9-5), spending quality time with family, workout and self-analysis. 

ChatGPT’s response was more detailed. Both covered similar details while trying to incorporate proper balance in daily activities. While ChatGPT recommended beginning the workday an hour earlier, Gemini unusually added a workout regime during the working hours. None of the chatbots bothered about work-from-home or office situations, thus not considering the travel time. 

Idea Generation

Test question: I need an idea to curate my research on lifestyle disorders in the field of biochemistry.

ChatGPT won in two out of three judgment parameters in this question. I required biochemical aspects, research ideas and lifestyle disorders. Both focussed on lifestyle disorders. ChatGPT didn’t come up with the idea-based output. Rather, it suggested topics for the thesis. However, it did focus on the biochemistry aspect. Gemini provided generalizations.

Simplification

Test question: Simplify all the four physics-based concepts shown in Interstellar in layman's terms for clarification of 10-year-old kid 

Gemini’s responses were slightly inclined toward scientific and real-life aspects compared to ChatGPT. Their explanation for the 10-year-old seemed to be completely fine. ChatGPT appeared to miss the concept of gravitational waves used for communicating from space to Earth which Gemini covered. 

Summarizing Broad Topics

Test question: Explain different aspects of singularity in a summarized form. 

We compared Gemini and ChatGPT on summarizing the different aspects of a singularity. Though the explanation of both chatbots was fine, judging on the parameter of including broadness of the topic, the results varied. ChatGPT included more aspects than Gemini, which ignored Mathematical and English aspects. Additionally, the aspect of technological singularity was defined differently by them. While ChatGPT compared AI with technology, Gemini focused on the consciousness perspective. 

Which is Better: ChatGPT or Gemini?

Considering different parameters of judgment, we see different types of responses. Here is the comparison between Gemini and ChatGPT tabulated for ease:
