By removing the waitlist, Google has made the Google Bard available to everyone in over 180 countries. The new version of Bard, which uses the PaLM 2 language model, is more powerful and accurate than the previous version that used LaMDA. This makes it easier for users to understand topics, gain new perspectives and insights, and complete tasks more efficiently.

In addition, Google is experimenting with Generative AI capabilities in search of those with personal emails. This new program, called Search Labs, helps users write emails faster and better. Instead of asking a series of questions and piecing together information yourself, a search can now do some of that heavy lifting for you.

Google’s Search Engine Experience (SGE)

Google has introduced a new feature called Search Engine Experience, which uses artificial intelligence and language models to provide better answers to complex search queries. The feature is currently in preview and will be rolling out to users who have signed up for the Search Labs program.

To get the newest feature in beta, you need to sign up for the waitlist on the Search Labs site. After signing up, Google will send you emails to let you know when you are in. You can opt-in to search and other experiments via the Google mobile app or Chrome for Windows, Mac, or Linux by visiting labs.google.com/search.

Instead of displaying 10 blue links, Google will generate an AI-powered “snapshot” of the information and other insights/tips to answer your questions, including insights, tips, and information from different sources.

Google is rolling out the feature in US English to those who signed up for Search Lab, available for desktop and mobile devices, including Android and iOS. However, Google One Premium subscribers will get priority access in the queue. You can start trying this feature once you receive emails about the feature access. Users don’t need to do anything; it will go live after they have been selected for the beta.

Google summarizes and presents the collected information in a visually distinct format with a coloured background. These models have been optimized to return high-quality, objective, and neutral responses that lack a person and do not give in a first-person POV. On the desktop web, Google will surface website information that answers the query to the right, while it appears as a carousel on mobile.

Opt-in to Google’s Mobile App

To opt-in to Google’s mobile app, follow these steps:

  • Open the Google App on your device.
  •  Tap on the three dots menu in the screen’s upper-right corner.
  •  Select “Settings” from the menu that appears.
  •  Scroll down and tap on “Search Labs.”
  •  Toggle the switch next to the experiment you want to try.

Opt-in to Google Chrome

To opt-in to Google Chrome, follow these steps:

  • Open Chrome on your device.
  •  Tap on the three dots menu to open “Settings.”
  •  Scroll down and select “Search.”
  •  Click on “Labs.”
  •  Toggle to enable the experiment you want to try.

Once you opt-in to the experiment, you will see a new icon in the search bar. Click on the icon to learn more about the experiments and how to use them. SGE has a button that lets you see how information was corroborated, a conversational mode for follow-up questions, and the ability to suggest options for buying-related queries and show ads. In addition, there are two new experiments: Code Tips and Add to Sheets.

  • Verify: This button shows the source of the response in the top-right corner. It helps you check if the response is accurate.
  • Conversation: This mode lets you ask follow-up questions. The chatbot interface tracks your previous questions and context to provide more informed answers.
  • Shopping and Ads: When you search for a product, it suggests options that fit your criteria, with prices, features, and reviews. Sponsored products are labelled sponsored shopping ads and appear in a blue box on the first page.
  • Code Tips: This feature gives pointers for writing code faster and smarter. You can ask how-to questions about specific programming languages, tools, and algorithms.
  • Add to Sheets: This feature lets you insert search results directly into spreadsheets and share them with friends. It’s a great way to keep track of information you find on a search.

Google Bard

Google has announced a new update to Google Bard. The update allows users to add visual content to their responses directly from Google Search. This feature was first teased during Google I/O 2023 and is now life worldwide. Users can now ask for images or have them accompany text responses.

The future update to Google Bard will offer even more visual content. This change comes after Bing announced a similar feature months ago in response to public demand.

Google Search offers many useful features:

  • Simplifies complex topics by breaking them into smaller parts and providing AI-powered snapshots.
  •  Answers specific questions concisely with pointers and a range of options.
  •  Helps research and compare products by providing a list of factors to consider and making recommendations based on review scores, price, and applications.

Google is taking on Bing with the release of Bing for Mobile. Google Bard has advanced features like Images and BardAI, similar to ChatGPT from OpenAI. Google also introduced the export feature, allowing users to export their conversations and easily import them into Gmail or Docs.

Integration is also coming to Google’s Productivity apps like Gmail and Docs to make AI more useful for everyday tasks. Bard’s export feature enhances productivity by enabling the reuse of generated responses in different applications. The company is making AI more practical and beneficial for regular users’ productivity needs.

Export Bard Response

The update introduces a feature called Search Generative Experience (SGE) that improves the Google Search experience by providing more detailed responses to queries.

To export a response to Gmail or Docs:

  • Click the Export button on the Google Bar.
  •  Choose the desired location to export the response.

Delete Bard History

To delete recent Bard activity history, follow these steps:

  • Go to the Side Panel or Menu.
  •  Look for Recent History under Bard Activity Summary.
  •  Click on the Delete Button to remove the history.

Google has recently announced new devices, including the Google Pixel 7a, Google Pixel Fold, and the Google Pixel Tablet. According to Google, these new releases are just the beginning, and more features will be added over time. Google is committed to being responsible with its AI efforts and ensuring high-quality models.
