Google’s Bard
Not to be outdone, Google has launched its own AI chatbot, dubbed “Bard,” that’s integrated with Google search. Initially announced in February, Google officially released a limited-access beta this week. Similar to ChatGPT, Bard is designed to answer users questions and engage in conversation, but it has also struggled with telling the truth and with avoiding offensive material. Bard is currently only available via a waitlist, although Google has also stressed that the more user feedback it receives, the better the program will ultimately run. With that in mind, it seems possible that Google will allow broader access to its chatbot in the near term.
