Google has opened its limited invites in the United Kingdom and the United States to test its AI chatbot Bard, as it gradually catches up with ChatGPT. A limited number of users will be able to join the waitlist at bard.google.com.
Similar to ChatGPT which is built on top of OpenAI’s GPT-3.5 and GPT-4 families of large language models (LLMs), Bard is a chatbot based on a large language model as well. Users can interact with Bard to ask questions and refine answers with follow-up questions.
In a blogpost posted by Google, the company stressed that Bard is not a replacement for its search engine but, rather, a “complement to search”, and that AI tools are “not without their faults.”
Google said that the roll-out will be slow and has not given any dates on wider rollout for public. Read the full blogpost here.
