You might not know, but Google has introduced a new “AI Chatbot,” which is known as “Bard.” Along with it, this experimental ChatGPT is now available in the market to test it out. With the release and open-to-access updates of Google’s “Bard,” Google officially announces its new and experimental AI chatbot. Moreover, you still have time to join the waitlist and try out the ChatGPT competitor before the company releases it to the rest of the ordinary public. When it comes to its functionality, Bard uses natural language processing and machine learning. 

So it can generate or create quick responses and answers in real-time. You won’t believe it, but it has the ability to write an email to customer service whenever you ask for it. It doesn’t matter whether you need a refund or plan your six-person vacation to London; you will find it stands out most of the time. But the only thing that might bother you is that Google's AI technology, ChatGPT, isn't fully developed yet. Sometimes its responses may come out inaccurate, incorrect, and even offensive, as Google said. As a result, accessing Bard is currently available in a limited manner, rather than the extreme that we were expecting. 

Furthermore, being an early tester, you have an opportunity to use the chatbot. In order to contribute to improving Google's AI technology, you can leave your feedback to developers after using it. Now, do you also want to try your hands on this early version of Bard? Then, here you have some initial information regarding how to join the waitlist and some minor details about using the new AI chatbot by Google. Now without delaying anymore, let’s jump onto the below; information carries a lot of relevant information required for processing.
