#Make it apparent and obvious when any plugins are used or any web-search is conducted.

As per the title. Not cool when you're silently using math plugins and it's very confusing when you don't know what web searches exactly were conducted if any. It's all about transparency, if you don't have that you can't expect smart tech-savvy people to be on board with it. From smart people it trickles down to your average Joe.

But if you don't have the fundamentals it will be hard to gain popularity. Not to mention, most of the people that would fall for it don't even know Bard website exists. 🙂

And those that know, can check the same prompt on Makersuite or API versus Bard website and see the blatantly obvious discrepancies. 😉

Also, maybe focus on real-world use cases a bit more than making it overfit the answers for benchmark scores. 😊

Math plugins like browser plugins or some other plugins?

but UI makes it look like no plugin is being used

I mean if not for plenty of other reasons, people should be aware of it at least to know that they can trust the results

I confess I need to plead ignorance on this one as I don't know much about the context. I'm only aware of plugins being used within a specific context such as browser, or certain server-side environments in other walks of life. I'm unaware of Bard "plugins" developed by Google.

Would be good to see any screenshots of the plugin at work although I realise that may be difficult to do if it's not obvious. Equally I might be asking to what extent Bard may give the impression it's using a plugin when perhaps there's some hallucinations?
