Google’s experimental chatbot Bard is on track to become the company’s next product with 2 billion users, according to its Product Lead Jack Krawczyk. Bard is a large language model that can help consumers brainstorm and fetch information. Google plans to integrate Bard with its timer-setting, command-fulfilling Google Assistant in the coming months.

Krawczyk said that Bard’s web traffic grew 2% in October to 8.7 million, while its chief rival ChatGPT grew at a faster pace. However, Krawczyk is focused on improving Bard’s helpfulness rather than monetization opportunities at the moment.

Bard has faced some challenges, including inventing non-existent messages and stumbling when people wanted to use it in “record numbers” on Wednesday. However, Krawczyk said that Google is learning how to most effectively accommodate large swaths of people and has resolved the issues.

Krawczyk compared the surge in Bard usage to the surge in Google Search traffic when pop star Michael Jackson died in 2009. He said that Google is excited about the potential for Bard to help more people and make the world a more informative place.

Implications

Bard’s potential to reach 2 billion users is a significant development for Google. It would make Bard one of the most widely used AI products in the world. This would give Google a major advantage in the rapidly growing AI market.

Bard’s integration with Google Assistant is also a significant development. It would make Bard more accessible to people who use Google Assistant on their smartphones, smart speakers, and other devices. This would make it easier for people to use Bard to brainstorm ideas, fetch information, and complete tasks.

Overall, Bard is a promising new AI product from Google. It has the potential to help people in many different ways and to make the world a more informative place.
