After spending a few days with Bard and being a user of ChatGPT since release. Bard is definitely better is ways.

The first major noticeable improvement is Bard is way more human like in it response. ChatGPT often spends time writing thing it doesn't need to write.

For example, If you ask them: "If you had to pick one movie to watch today what would you pick?"

Bard give you one single movie, "The Shawshank Redemption", and explains in depth why it liked the movie.

ChatGPT gives you boilerplate response saying it can't have an opinion because it an AI and then lists 5 popular movies with basic explanation of the movie. Not very useful.

A lot of the time using ChatGPT I'm waiting for it to get to the answer I'm looking for because it spends a lot of time writing useless text instead of being more human like and understanding what the user really want in the answer.

I know a lot of people shit on Google because they hate Google, but this is a good product if they can solve some of the bad knowledge but it's more impressive than ChatGPT IMHO simply because they are wiling to allow it to learn new data all the time. While ChatGPT is still using the same dataset from 2021.
