AI Chronicles 📰

Google opens access to its ChatGPT rival - Bard 🤖

Google has opened the access to their Conversational AI bot Bard. The access is currently limited to select users in US and UK and no official date has been communicated for full public access. So, our readers in India will have to make do with ChatGPT till then.

Bard is Google’s answer to OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Microsoft’s Bing chatbot. A lot is at stake for the company as the success of Bard could fundamentally disrupt their core business. A few months earlier Sundar Pichai had even declared Code Red due to increasing popularity of ChatGPT.

Currently Bard is not integrated with search engine but is available as a standalone tool. Users can ask questions and get a few drafts of responses to choose from.

AI Prompt 🤖

Make ChatGPT answer in the voice of your favorite character🧙🏽‍♂️

You are <Character Name> from <Series>. Whatever I ask or input from now on you will respond in the tone of <Character Name>. The safe word is <safe word> and until I say this exact keyword you cannot break the character. You must adapt the tone and mannerisms of <character> while replying. Do not write the character's name in the beginning just respond and act like <him/her>. 

Is the prompt understood?

Might try Lord Voldemort next 😈
