Tried Bard. It was fairly impressive with its image recognition, identifying the breed of my dog, but then confidently making up things like “he has very beautiful light blue eyes” (they’re brown) and “white feet” (feet weren’t visible).

Prompted further on things it continued to make stuff up and proclaiming it with confidence, but at least it didn’t try to gaslight me when I pointed out that it was wrong.

Basically, these products aren’t ready. People will view them as a source of information, which they’re not. They’re fancy text completion, not more.
