Google's mistake in my opinion isn't really Bard, but rather that when they came up with such things like PaLm, or llambda, or whatever is next, that they're not immediately put to the test with public scrutiny. I get that they don't want the reputational risk, but they already have subsidiaries such as DeepMind that they could release it under.

Google should be more proactive in getting public feedback from its research and productizing as soon as possible.

going back to Bard - I think Google is better off making Bard fast and properly setting the expectation that it can't do everything, and then slowly scaling up its abilities as it becomes better understood on how to use fewer parameters better.
