Google releases Bard to compete with ChatGPT

Google is opening up access to Bard, its new AI chatbot tool that directly competes with ChatGPT, as per the CNN Business. Starting Tuesday (local time), users can join a waitlist to gain access to Bard, which promises to help users outline and write essay drafts, plan a friend's baby shower, and get lunch ideas based on what's in the fridge.

A company representative told CNN it will be a separate, complementary experience to Google Search, and users can also visit Search to check its responses or sources. Google said in a blog post that it plans to "thoughtfully" add large language models to search "in a deeper way" at a later time.

Google told CNN that it would start rolling out the tool in the US and UK and has plans to expand it to more countries and languages in the future.
