Bard isn’t being taken seriously by google and it shows, which is alarming since this is their apparent strategy to deal with LLMs. If I was in charge of that project and I chatted with Bard on launch day, then I would never have made it public because it’s too embarrassingly stupid (!) of an Intelligence model to be ready. Not even alpha or beta!!!

These links were probably shared to a site that was crawled by Google and indexed. I don't think this can happen with your personal queries shared with friends or in a closed circle.

Reaction: Whomever works in PRODUCT at Google has egg on their face.

An interesting idea:

One could use this feature, and the special site:https://bard.google.com/share URL (or https://duckduckgo.com/?t=ffab&q=site%3Ahttps%3A%2F%2Fbard.g...) to have Bard host arbitrary conversations.

EDIT

Found some cyber-stalking / self-investigation...
