Google Bard Can Now Respond in Real Time
Google Bard now has a “respond in real time” option, 9to5 Google reports.
Bard is a conversational generative AI chatbot developed by Google. Much like OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Bard allows you to ask questions and get help with projects and ideas similar to as if you were speaking to a human.
Typically when you ask Bard a question there’s a bit of a delay between sending the question and a response appearing. Now, you’ll be able to ask the bot to respond as it’s creating an answer. There’s still a tiny bit of a delay, but then you’ll see a response come in line-by-line as Bard creates it.
Besides saving you a bit of time waiting for a response, the feature also has a “Skip response” button you can press if you happen to realize the response isn’t helpful and you want to bail out early.
If you’d rather wait and see answers after Bard has completed them you can also set the chatbot to do that.
You can make your selection by tapping the Settings icon and then selecting “respond in real time” or “Respond once complete.”
In the coming months, Google is expected to roll out an updated version of Google Assistant that brings Bard’s AI capabilities to the virtual assistant.
