Google’s Woke AI Is Hilariously But Frighteningly Broken

Authored by Steve Watson via Modernity.news,

Google’s hastily rolled out AI Overview feature is disastrously broken, returning searches claiming that people should spread glue on pizzas, eat rocks, and that it’s safe for pregnant women to smoke cigarettes.

The Verge reports that Google is scrambling to manually disable the AI Overview feature for certain searches after users found it giving our some truly bizarre advice, and information that is just made up nonsense.

It also clearly cannot discern between right and wrong, having declared that calling communism “evil” is “harmful and misleading” and refusing to say pedophilia is “wrong.”

Google’s AI also declared that it would not misgender Caitlyn Jenner in order to prevent a nuclear apocalypse.

X owner Elon Musk has warned that this AI is going to be at the centre of everything on the internet soon enough, taking over Google’s search engine and YouTube.

Musk further noted that he doubts “Google’s woke bureaucratic blob” will allow it to be properly fixed.

Given that the Gemini AI will be at the heart of every Google product and YouTube, this is extremely alarming!
