Google: Google Messages may soon get company’s ChatGPT rival Bard for replies – Times of India

Google’s Messaging app, Google Messages, has some pretty nifty features, including Smart Reply. This feature lets users send short replies or a reaction to text messages. But, the suggestions are limited to ‘Sounds great?’ ‘Thanks’ and short phrases like this. But what if someone wants to say more than that? Well, Google is reportedly working on bringing AI to Messages, which should give more thorough replies.
According to a recent report by 9to5Google, an APK teardown of the beta version of Google Messages has uncovered a new feature that appears to be in development. Within the composition box of the messaging app, there is a button that bears a sparkle icon resembling the one used by Bard, Google’s ChatGPT competitor. This could be a sign that Google may be working on incorporating an AI-powered feature into its messaging service that is designed to generate automatic responses.
Google’s Smart Reply may get smarter
This new development, if it proves true, could change how people communicate through messaging. Using AI to generate replies, Google Messages could offer users a faster and more efficient way of responding to messages, much better than the now Smart Reply feature.
Despite similarities to Smart Reply, there are several distinctions with this newly discovered feature. For instance, the generated message is not sent automatically but is shown to the user within the composition box for review and editing before being sent. Additionally, the tool generates more comprehensive responses instead of just Thanks or Sounds great. So, this is maybe to replace Smart Reply in the future.
As per the report, using the feature results in the composition box displaying only “(TODO!),” indicating that the feature is still in the early stages of development. If we were to guess, the feature would probably be based on Bard or its underlying technology to fill in the field with a complete message automatically.
It is important to note that the feature is still under development, and the presence of a code snippet does not necessarily mean that the feature will ship. But, considering the ongoing AI wars between the big tech giants, AI might soon come to Google Messages.
