Who it's for: AI Assistant users who want a faster, AI-assisted workflow without a steep learning curve.
Bard answered questions, drafted text, and brainstormed ideas in a clean chat UI backed by Google’s LaMDA/PaLM models.
Deep integration with Google’s productivity suite let users draft and refine inside the apps they already used.
