Bard is a chatbot developed by Google. It’s trained on a massive amount of text data and can respond to many prompts and questions. Here’s some of what you can do with Bard:
ChatGPT uses Generative Pre-trained Transformer 4 (GPT-4), and Bard employs the Language Model for Dialogue Applications (LaMDA).
Both ChatGPT and Bard can access the web, but Bard does it for free.
Both rely on text-based prompts, but Bard has two extra prompt-related features — it lets you ask questions via your microphone and includes a “Google it” button if you want to search the web yourself.
