A first look of Google's Assistant with bard has been released, and its
launch could be closer than we think.

FULL STORY ======================================================================

2024 is set to see AI playing an increasingly prominent role in all kinds of tech devices and services, and Google is getting the ball rolling by
enhancing Google Assistant with Google Bard features, having launched its AI chatbot last year.

During its Made by Google event in October, Google announced that the new Assistant by Bard would blend elements of both tools to create a generative
AI search powerhouse. Its Google Assistant search tool has been integrated across the companys products since its launch in 2016.

Googles developments in AI are transforming the way users experience and interact with its repertoire of apps and services, with AI tools available in Gmail, YouTube, and Google Docs, among others. The merging of Google Bard and Google Assistant features marks the next big step in the companys plan to integrate AI across all its products and services.

While Assistant with Bard doesnt have a confirmed release date just yet, images and video shared by 9to5Google give us an idea of how it will look and function.

9to5Google suggests that Assistant with Bard will replace Google Assistant altogether across Google and Android devices. If this is true, its likely
that youll access the new AI the same way as you would access Google Assistant; either by commanding Hey Google, or long-pressing the power
button.

Looking at the images, the Discover page in the Google search app appears to have received a Bard integration in the form of a slider toggle that enables you to easily switch between a standard Google search and the AI chatbot (Image credit: 9to5Google )

Other images show the pop-up that appears when Assistant by Bard is enabled, allowing you to ask questions by talking, typing, or sharing photos using the three options at the bottom of the screen. Google previewed this design
during its October event, at which it launched the Google Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro . (Image credit: 9to5Google )

Assistant with Bard isnt yet available to use, but going by the images shared by 9to5Google it appears that the rollout of Googles next AI development is imminent.
