Google Bard now types up its responses word-by-word

Google’s Bard is one of the most powerful AI chatbots on the internet. When you ask it a question, it gives you a solid block of text all at once. This process is pretty timely, but Google pushed an update to its chatbot. According to a new report, Bard will generate its responses in real time rather than at once.

Generating responses in real time is something that chatbots like ChatGPT and Bing AI do. You’ll see your response being typed out word by word, and this process can take quite some time. Comparing the speed of ChatGPT and Bard, the latter left the former in the dust. However, speed is only one factor of what makes a good chatbot.

Bard will generate its responses in real time

Generating text at once and in real time both have their benefits. If you need your response in the blink of an eye, then you’ll want the first option. It’s a great way to expedite your chatbot experience. However, what if you want to see your response actively being worked on to see if it’s what you want before it’s finished?

This is something that you get to do with ChatGPT and Bing AI. Google sees the value in this, so the company updated Bard to type out its responses in real time. This means that you’ll see the response being typed out word by word.

Say, you wanted it to generate a whole story. Well, you could get a headstart reading it while it’s being made. This would give you an idea of whether it’s in the right format or if it’s starting off in the right direction that you want.  You’ll be able to stop it early and make adjustments before it’s finished.

In the long run, this could actually speed up the process. Just know that Bard produces the responses rather quickly; it might be finished before you can reach for the Stop generating button.

But, you can change it back

In any case, if you don’t like this new addition, you can change this in the settings. There’s also a popup that appears at the top of the screen that will lead you to that setting.
