Google Bard is powered by Google’s own large language model (LLM) PaLM 2, which was unveiled at Google I/O 2023.
PaLM 2 — a more advanced version of PaLM, which was released in April 2022 — will allow Bard to be much more efficient and to perform at a higher level.
When searching, Bard permits more natural language queries, rather than keywords. Bard’s AI is trained around natural-sounding conversational queries and responses, therefore, it provides context to the responses.
