Google Bard: Notes

Google Bard Logo

"Google Bard is an experimental, conversational AI chat service developed by Google. It is powered by the Pathways Language Model 2 (PaLM 2), a large language model that has been trained on a massive dataset of text and code."

Google Bard is named after the Celtic word "bard", which means "poet" or "storyteller". This is a reference to Bard's ability to generate text, translate languages, and write different kinds of creative content. It is also a reference to the fact that Bard is still under development, and is learning to be more creative and informative all the time.

The name "Bard" also has a geeky connotation, which fits with Google's naming conventions. In the popular role-playing game Dungeons & Dragons, a bard is a type of playable character who is skilled in music, poetry, and storytelling.

Overall, the name "Bard" is a good fit for Google's AI chatbot. It is a name that is both creative and informative, and it reflects the company's commitment to innovation.
