The Google chatbot "Apprentice Bard" offers similar prompt and response functionality to ChatGPT, but would one-up the OpenAI chatbot by offering responses about recent events.

Apprentice Bard is apparently based on Meena, a chatbot Google unveiled in 2020, and only released internally, but later discontinued. 

Google is also testing a different Google search page that would permit questions and responses the way ChatGPT can ask further questions and respond to refined prompts. 

According to CNBC, one design shows the search page with "five different prompts for potential questions placed directly under the main search bar." This would be in place of the current "I'm feeling lucky" bar. It also showed a small chat logo inside the far right end of the search bar. A Google spokesperson told CNBC that it continues to test AI technology internally to make sure it's helpful and safe "and we look forward to sharing more experiences externally soon."
