Its March launch announcement had listed coding among future capabilities. Today’s update delivers that part of the roadmap.
Python output can go straight to Colab, and Bard can help write Google Sheets functions. The export promise is narrower than the language list: Google specifies Python for Colab.
Google also says Bard will cite an open-source project when quoting it at length. That’s a source-tracing aid, alongside its advice to test and review generated code before relying on it. The announcement doesn’t promise a citation for every suggestion.
