Thanks to the growing number of artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots, searching for information is becoming easier, as long as you know how to ask the right questions.

Google is the latest to release an AI chatbot called Bard. The company joins Microsoft and OpenAI, which are rolling out AI tools based on the new GPT-4 platform. Experts say the new AI choices are a win for users.

“Bard is a significant advancement in AI technology designed to help users communicate more effectively and efficiently,” Iu Ayala, CEO of Gradient Insight, an AI consulting firm, told Lifewire in an email interview. “One of the key benefits of Bard is its ability to engage users in natural conversations that simulate a human experience. This feature is particularly useful for people who may require assistance or have accessibility issues when it comes to communicating.”

The proliferation of chatbots in recent weeks has made it difficult to keep pace with technological advances. Google’s Bard uses the internet to provide answers to questions rather than providing web pages and links as search engines do. It can also write essays and poems.
