Apparently, the Bard AI chatbot was launched a while back in the US and UK with limited features, but now it’s available in a whopping 180 countries. And get this – it can even support multiple languages like English, Japanese, and Korean to compete with other chatbots like ChatGPT.
To create this new chatbot, Google used an AI model called LaMDA. It’s pretty impressive because the chatbot will be able to debut code of different programming languages like C, Java, and JavaScript. So, that’s great news for software developers out there.
But here’s where Google really takes the lead over ChatGPT: the Bard AI chatbot can even respond with images, using Google’s in-house built Google lens. Plus, Google has promised that Bard AI will be integrated with other Google services like Maps, Sheets, Gmail, and Docs. Pretty cool, right?

Writing assignments like emails, summaries, and paragraph completions—the list is endless! These characteristics have the potential to boost productivity as a whole. The next part is where Google has added its AI capabilities to its Search bar where the company claims that it will be utilizing its new AI technology named Covnerse which will not be similar to ChatGPT but infact it will be working more like an integrated feature in the search bar and help towards resolving complex queries. As of now, it’s been is that access to this feature has been kept only for experimental purposes, so it will take time for its official launch.
