Unlock the ability to share and extend your Bard conversations with friends and the online community using Google’s Bard AI experiment. Similar to ChatGPT, Bard offers a sharing feature that enables you to distribute engaging, amusing, and insightful conversations. Below are the steps to effortlessly share your Bard AI chats:
Table of Contents
- Go to the relevant conversation in your Bard interface.
- Under the response you want to share, click the Share icon (three dots beside the Google icon).
- Choose “Share,” “Export to Google Docs,” or “Draft in Gmail.”
- If you select “Share”:
- Choose “This Prompt & Response” or “Entire Chat.”
- Review or edit the auto-generated headline for context.
- Click “Create Public Link.”
- Copy and paste the link to share on messaging apps or social media.
Remember:
- Avoid sharing sensitive info, as everything is visible.
- Shared links let others continue the conversation with Bard.
- Shared images are visible and downloadable.
Accessing a shared link allows you to pick up where the conversation left off and store it in your Bard Activity if enabled.
If you want to control who has access to your shared Bard chat links, follow these steps:
- Click on the “Settings” icon (cog wheel) and go to “Your Public Links” to see all your active shared links.
- To remove access to all your shared links, click “Remove All Links.”
- For a specific chat, click the “Remove Public Link” (bin icon) next to the conversation.
- This action ensures that people you shared the link with can no longer access the chat(s).
- Even after revoking access, you’ll still find the chats saved in your Bard history.
Note: Shared links automatically expire after 6 months, making older links invalid. Keep this in mind when managing your shared content.
Is Sharing Google Bard Chats Safe?
Before sharing a Bard chat, think about the information it contains. Personal details, opinions, or private info meant for Bard’s eyes might become public. Consider these points:
- Privacy Risks:
- Google indexed Bard AI’s conversations previously, raising privacy concerns.
- While Google fixed the issue, there’s no guarantee shared chats won’t be searchable again.
- Ownership Complexity:
- Ownership of AI-generated content is unclear.
- You might not fully control how text, images, or media from a Bard chat are used.
- Safe Sharing Tips:
- Safest option: Avoid sharing Bard chats.
- If you share, review the chat for sensitive info.
- Anything shared online could go public, so be cautious.
Conclusion: Sharing Bard AI Chats—With Caution
Sharing Bard chats is simple with a public link. Exercise caution about what details you reveal. Regularly check and delete shared Bard AI public links as needed.
