Google’s AI chatbot, named Bard, is now accessible in the EU after complying with GDPR regulations. This comes after a temporary halt in June due to stricter privacy measures demanded by the Irish Data Protection Commission (DPC), which aimed to safeguard European citizens’ data. Bard’s product leader said that Google has met the DPC’s requirements, granting users control and transparency over their data usage.
The expansion of Bard in the EU, as well as Brazil, brings new features designed to enhance Google’s position in the generative AI competition. It now supports over 40 languages, including Arabic, Chinese, German, Hindi, and Spanish. Moreover, users can customize Bard’s tone and style, choose from various response lengths, and enjoy the option to pin, rename, and share conversations.
Among Bard’s top competitors are OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Microsoft’s Bing AI, and Anthropic’s Claude 2. However, that small list is growing rapidly with new entries from Elon Musk and Meta.
Google’s compliance with GDPR regulations and the introduction of new privacy features for Bard in the EU should provide users with more control and customization options. As AI technology expands, the competition is growing fiercer, but so is the challenge to society.
