"Google's Bard Assistant Gears Up for Launch with Leaked UI and Wishlist Features"
Google is preparing to integrate its AI chatbot, Bard, with the Google Assistant, as indicated by a UI leak. The main Google app will feature a new slider to switch between traditional search and the Bard-powered experience. Users will be able to interact with Assistant with Bard through voice, text, or photo prompts, and access it via a long-press of the power button or voice command. The update also includes a redesigned Finance widget and the option to revert to the "Classic Assistant." The polished state of the UI suggests that the official launch of Assistant with Bard may be imminent.
