Google Bard uses a factual language model. It is trained on a large dataset of text and code from various sources like books, articles, and code repositories. This training enables Bard to generate and translate text, create creative content and provide answers to queries.
It's dataset constantly updated, which makes it more relevant than other AI's in some cases.
Summary
