During Google I/O 2023 in May, Google unveiled its alternative to ChatGPT called Bard, which is now available in 180 countries, including India.
In a recent update, Google has introduced support for nine Indian languages, including Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Bengali, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi, Gujarati, and Urdu for its AI chatbot Bard which now supports more than 40 languages, making it convenient for users to access accurate word pronunciation, listen to poems or scripts, and explore various features.
With Bard, users can enter a prompt and select the sound icon to hear Bard's responses. Moreover, users can customise the tone and style of Bard's replies, choosing from options like simple, long, short, professional, or casual. Currently, this feature is available in English and will soon expand to other languages.
