Google Bard is now available for Workspace users, but with a caveat: all data
Google joined the AI chatbot party earlier this year when, under pressure from Microsoft-backed OpenAI, the company finally made a LaMDA-powered chatbot, Google Bard, available to testers. However, many people, including developers, suffered from the fact that Google Bard was not available for Google Workspace users.
Now, Google has now made Bard available to Workspace users. As reported by 9to5Google , the Google Workspace changelog (2023.05.05) confirms that admins can now enable Bard on their domains, allowing their users to use Bard on their Workspace accounts.
However, this update does not give Workspace users direct access to Google Bard, and users will still need to join the waiting list like other testers.

In a later blog post, Google notes that Google Workspace administrators will be able to enable Bard for their users in the coming days by going to the admin console under Apps > Additional Google Services > Early Access Apps.
