By Google has recently made an announcement that it will be offering early access to its AI chatbot, “Bard”. This experimental tool is intended for users to collaborate with generative AI. The early access program has been rolled out in the US and UK and will expand to more countries and languages over time. According to Google, users can use Bard to boost their productivity, accelerate their ideas, and fuel their curiosity by asking it to provide tips on achieving their goals, explain complex concepts, or help spark their creativity.
Like its competitors, OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Microsoft’s Bing chatbot, Bard is based on a large language model (LLM), which acts as a prediction engine, generating responses based on the words that are likely to come next. Users can interact with Bard by asking questions and refining their responses with follow-up questions. The company plans to continually improve Bard’s capabilities, including adding coding, supporting more languages, and providing multimodal experiences over time. As AI chatbots continue to evolve, it will be interesting to see how they will transform our daily lives and shape the future of communication.
