You know how Google’s new feature called AI Overviews is prone to spitting out wildly incorrect answers to search queries? In one instance, AI Overviews told a user to use glue on pizza to make sure the cheese won’t slide off (pssst…please don’t do this.)

Well, according to an interview at The Vergewith Google CEO Sundar Pichai published earlier this week, just before criticism of the outputs really took off, these “hallucinations” are an “inherent feature” of  AI large language models (LLM), which is what drives AI Overviews, and this feature “is still an unsolved problem.”

    I’d say it’s a continuation of the exact same thing - they just don’t know how to properly use their latest toy yet.

      At this point, considering your vague non-answers, my only choice is to interpret your answer to my question as “no, I can’t.”

      Take care.

        vague non-answers

        Absolutely no “vague non-answers” on my part. If you don’t understand how propaganda works, it’s on you to say so - not me.
