Google launches Bard, its answer to ChatGPT – here's what it looks like - Search Engine Land

Google is now testing Bard, its answer to OpenAI’s ChatGPT.

Google CEO Sundar Pichai today announced the soft launch of Bard to a set “trusted testers,” showcasing what this early experimental release looks like with some examples.

We knew this was coming, as Pichai mentioned this on the Google earnings call.

What Bard looks like

Let’s first start with what it looks like in Google Search – because that’s what everyone has been waiting to see. So let’s jump into some examples.

Here is a screenshot Google provided. It shows how Googe Search uses Bard to respond to long queries with a long AI-created response:

This screenshot gives you an idea of how Google may integrate Bard directly into Google Search.

Pichai wrote:

“Soon, you’ll see AI-powered features in Search that distill complex information and multiple perspectives into easy-to-digest formats, so you can quickly understand the big picture and learn more from the web: whether that’s seeking out additional perspectives, like blogs from people who play both piano and guitar, or going deeper on a related topic, like steps to get started as a beginner.” Google said, “these features will rolling out on Google Search soon.”

Here is another screenshot from Google on how Bard might respond to questions:

In this case, Bard is explaining new discoveries from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope to a 9-year-old. This screenshot is more of a specialized user interface for users to interact with Bard outside of Google Search.
