BARD / Gemini
Characteristics
Bard is a conversational generative artificial intelligence chatbot developed by Google, based initially on the LaMDA family of large language models (LLMs) and later the PaLM LLM. It was developed as a direct response to the rise of OpenAI’s ChatGPT,[3] and was released in a limited capacity in March 2023 to lukewarm responses, before expanding to other countries in May.
Could be useful for
Similar to ChatGPT Gemini can create custom lesson plans and resources in response to prompts, it also integrates with Google products so you could for example ask Gemini to write a lesson plan, then to create a rubrick for the lesson and then export the rubrick to Google Sheets, or export the whole conversation into a document or email.
