Same for the past 30+ minutes was surprised not to see it on HN but guess it just took a little time for someone to post. Tried Bard and reminded me how far behind it is when asking programmer questions.

You might find the results from Google Cloud's Vertex AI better than the general purpose Bard. They have a number of pre-trained models for coding tasks. You can chat in the console UI or use the API directly. They also offer a number of open source models (codey & llama), so you can easily try different models

I am finding Bard almost comparable. Gpt quality is declining I think.

Wouldn't surprise me if bard permanently surpasses gpt in the next quarter. Particularly if openai is dialing down quality...
