Prompt with images

Using Google Lens, Bard will analyze the photo, and draft a few creative captions – all within seconds.

While on the flip side, it is bad news for anyone who spent money on Bard domains hoping to cash in. Domain resellers often buy domain names of popular brands for the purpose of selling them at a much higher cost. For instance if a popular domain name has Bard.com, then related domains could be Bard.io, Bard.co.uk, etc.

This is because websites owners often buy these domains with the hope of attracting traffic from the mother domain, and easy rankings on Google’s front page.

But unfortunately for them, Bard is going to be renamed to Gemini, making domain names bearing Bard of no importance.

Have you bought your Gemini related domains just yet?
