Google Bard AI explained?
But, what is Bard? The new tool is a large language model built upon Google’s LaMDA (Language Model for Dialogue Applications) technology. It has the ability to generate human-like responses to tasks such as question-answering, creative idea generation, and text summarization.
Bard operates just like other AI chatbots such as OpenAI’s Chat GPT and Microsoft’s ‘new’ Bing search engine. What’s great about this new tool, is that it will be able to draw on real-time information from the internet.
This unique feature will ensure Bard produces “fresh, high-quality responses”. Although, this is up for debate after the chatbot’s recent mistake in a demo video released by the tech giant.
Is Google Bard AI public?
At the moment, yes. Google’s Bard is currently open to the general public via a waiting list. Once you gain access, expect to see Bard fully integrated into Google Search.
Which countries is Google Bard available in?
Google Bard was originally launched in the United Kingdom and the United States. Although, Google plans to expand availability to more countries in the future.
Final Thoughts
Google Bard will most definitely be a prominent figure in the AI search engine world. The new service will truly change the way we access information on the internet and is an exciting prospect for fellow Google users. At the moment, you can access Bard as a member of the public via their waitlist.
