Everything they published thus far in the generative AI space has been abysmal in quality compared to the competition. I'd be hella surprised if this reaches GPT-4 levels of quality...
I'm a GPT4 subscriber and a Google GSuite work subscriber. I've been using the latest Bard this morning to write and refine python code, and it's just as good if not slightly better than GPT4. I asked it to refine some obtuse code with lots of chaining, and it did an admirable job writing accurate comments and explaining the chained logic. It's ridiculously anecdotal of course, but I used Bard for all of 5 minutes last time they announced. This time seems different.
It's very active today: 50+ trades in the last hour. When I checked it was 69%, but it's gone up and down since then. Click on the "trades" tab to see.
