I have been
writing about AI a lot lately, especially when it comes to Generative AI. In fact, I am authoring an entire book on the
subject matter. But somehow or another,
we tend to think that ChatGPT is the only Gen AI tool that is out there for the
consumer. However, this is far from the truth. There are many others, and one that is
starting to gain some attention is from Google, which is called “Gemini”. This was actually formerly known as “Bard”.
Interestingly
enough, I came across an article this morning which compares the two in a side-by-side
matchup. So here we go:
1)
The creation of diagrams:
If
you are a technically oriented person like I am, then creating diagrams in your
content (whatever it may be) is important to illustrate key points. I am not a very good graphics designer, so I
rely heavily upon the tools that I have available to me in Word. But which of these tools is better? The author felt that Geminin did a far better
job in composing a technical diagram, whereas ChatGPT totally fizzled out. In fact, it suffers from a phenomenon called “Hallucination”. What is it you may be asking? Well, here is a definition of it:
“AI
hallucinations are incorrect or misleading results that AI models generate.
These errors can be caused by a variety of factors, including insufficient
training data, incorrect assumptions made by the model, or biases in the data
used to train the model.”
In
other words, you don’t get the output that you were wanting to get, despite the
fact that the Gen AI model probably has been trained over 100X.
2)
Explaining
Diagrams:
If
an end user sees a diagram, and they don’t understand, the first inkling will
be to ask for help interpreting it. Of
course, this is where Gen AI can come into play. The author of the article found that while
both ChatGPT and Gemini suffice for the need, the latter is a bit less wordy
than the former.
3)
Examining
Log Files:
One
of the life bloods for the IT Security team in figuring out if anything is
going wrong are to examine the log files that have been outputted by the network
security devices. It can take a long
time to do this manually, so Gen AI can help here. Which tool is better? When presented with an actual log file, both analyzed
it the same way. But Gemini was a bit
more concise than when compared to ChatGPT.
4)
Creating
documentation:
Having
Incident Response/Disaster Recovery/Business Continuity plans are a must for
any business. When the two tools were
asked to create a sample plan, the author found that Gemini did a better job in
understanding what the exact requirements were.
5)
The
Creation of Source Code:
Creating
scripts is one way for the IT Security team to help automate routine and
mundane tasks, such as those found in Penetration Testing and Threat
Hunting. When these tools were asked to
produce a few lines of a script code, both came
out as equal winners.
6)
Data
Analysis:
When
both were asked in this regard, Gemini was a clear loser. It only suggested ways to analyze the metrics,
whereas ChatGPT actually did the task to varying degrees, by making use of its “Data
Analyst” plugin, which allows for Excel files to be ingested into the Gen AI
model.
7)
Creating
phony Phishing attacks:
One
of the best ways you can find out if your employees are paying attention to
your Security Awareness training is by launching a mock Phishing Email attack,
and see who falls prey to it. When
Gemini and ChatGPT were asked to create a mock Phishing Email, the author found
that Gemini created a more succinct and deceptive message versus ChatGPT, which
created a wordy one.
8)
Data
Privacy Laws:
Let’s
face it, the wording in the GDPR, CCPA, HIPAA, and any other sort of compliance
framework can be a nightmare to understand.
So what do you do in this particular situation? Well ask Geminin or ChatGPT for help. The author did this exact thing, and found
out Gemini was better than Chat GPT in this regard.
My
Thoughts On This:
So, you now
may be asking, which one should I use?
From what I read in the article and wrote about in this blog, it seems
that Gemini has the upper hand here.
But, try both for yourself and see which ones provide the best output
for your needs.
