Google's AI is named "BERT"

Google's transformer-based language model, BERT (Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers), was developed by a team of researchers in 2018. BERT is a type of deep learning model that can understand the context and nuances of language, and is considered a major breakthrough in natural language processing (NLP). BERT was trained on a massive dataset of 1.5 million books and 1,000 times more text than the previous largest model, and has been used in many applications, including search results and language translation.
