Unlike ChatGPT, which can only accept written prompts, Google Bard has support for both written and spoken inputs. It features access to your device’s microphone, allowing you to use your voice to interact with the AI chatbot. Just click on the mic icon, say your prompt, watch Bard transcribe it for you, and get your response. This makes the Google chatbot more accessible and user-friendly, especially to those who can’t physically use a mouse and keyboard.
You can use audio inputs like how you would text prompts. For instance, instead of typing your request, you can talk with Bard to ask for information about recent news, have it write a Facebook caption for a store anniversary, or let it draft code for your Raspberry Pi. Bard’s audio prompts can also be of use for translating languages. However, as of this writing, it’s limited to three languages: U.S. English, Korean, and Japanese. The developers are actively working on adding more options, so you might get to use additional languages with the chatbot in the future.
