Abstract
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine the motivation behind Google’s development of Gemini and its potential impact on the information industry. Design/methodology/approach This viewpoint paper relies on a comprehensive analysis of the advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) technology, specifically in the field of chatbots. Findings The findings reveal that Gemini is designed to enhance user experiences by providing personalized and contextually relevant information. It aims to streamline information retrieval, improve customer service and offer tailored content recommendations. The competition among companies in building AI-powered chatbots is driving rapid advancements and innovation in the field. Originality/value The originality of this paper lies in its analysis of Google DeepMind’s Gemini and its potential impact on the information industry. It highlights the significance of AI-powered chatbots in transforming how users access and interact with information. This paper contributes to the existing literature by examining the competition in building AI tools and its implications for the future of the information industry. It offers insights into the motivation behind Google’s development of Gemini and its potential value in enhancing user experiences and driving monetization opportunities.
期刊介绍:
Library Hi Tech News (LHTN) helps busy professionals stay abreast of current events and developments in the library and information industry. LHTN publishes articles of varying lengths, reports from relevant conferences, and case studies of how technology is used in the library. The Editors work closely with authors who are new to publishing, and those who are seeking outlets for reporting on practical uses of IT in libraries. Publishing your article in LHTN can be "a place to start," analogous to a "poster session in print", and does not preclude publishing a more fulsome piece in a peer-reviewed journal at a later date. Readers consider LHTN as the source from which to hear what’s coming next in terms of technology development for academic and public libraries.
