Bard, Google AI’s large language model, has received a number of new updates in recent months, making it more powerful, more accessible, and more integrated with Google’s other products and services.

More powerful

Bard’s latest update includes a number of improvements to its generative AI capabilities. It can now generate more creative and informative text formats, including poems, code, scripts, musical pieces, email, letters, etc. Bard can also now translate between more than 40 languages, and it can access and process information from Google apps such as Maps, YouTube, Hotels, and Flights.

More accessible

Bard is now available to more people than ever before. It is now available in over 40 languages, and it has been removed from the waitlist, so anyone can start using it today. Bard is also now available in more countries and territories than before.

More integrated

Bard is now more integrated with Google’s other products and services. For example, you can now enable Bard to interact with information from your Gmail, Docs, and Drive accounts. This means that you can collaborate with Bard on your content and projects directly within these Google apps.

Here are some specific examples of how you can use Bard’s new updates:

  • Generate creative text formats: Bard can now generate poems, code, scripts, musical pieces, email, letters, etc. For example, you could ask Bard to generate a poem about a specific topic, or to write a script for a short film.
