Additionally, the AI chatbot can help users write functions for Google Sheets and even explains code to them. Up until this point, ChatGPT was well recognized for its assistance in coding, but it seems that Google is eager to catch up with the competition. Few people in the US and UK can use Bard, which is currently in the testing stage. Coding is listed as “one of the top requests” the firm has heard from its users in the blog post unveiling Bard’s new abilities.

According to the blog post, Bard may now assist with activities related to programming and software development, such as code production, debugging, and code explanation. More than 20 programming languages, including C++, Go, Java, Javascript, Python, and Typescript, are available with these new features. Additionally, exporting Python code to Google Colab is simple and doesn’t need copying and pasting. Bard can help with Google Sheets’ writing features as well.

The article continues, “In addition to generating code, Bard can help you explain code snippets for you,” highlighting another way that Bard might be of use. If you’re studying programming for the first time or if you want extra guidance to comprehend what a block of code may produce, this is really beneficial. By this time, we have heard a lot about the AI chatbot’s propensity to “hallucinate.” According to theory, hallucination in AI happens when it confidently offers false information, leading the user to think it to be genuine. The Bard blog post from Google also mentions the AI chatbot’s potential for hallucinations.
