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.”

    If you think everyone around you is dumber than a text app, you might be the problem.

      “a text app”… Sure, it is a text app. Definetely not revolutionizing the tech industry as we speak, totally irrelevant. Sure.

        If you believe jumping on a corporate fad race bandwagon for enshittification to be “revolutionizing” I guess you’re not wrong.

        Then again you also believe that people are dumber than text predictive software… So yeah. Lmao

          I have never said that Chatgpt is smarter than humans, I said that when it comes to linguistics, it is more advanced than the average human.

          But keep twisting my words, I don’t care. Have a wonderful rest of the week. Good bye.

                "I’m Plumba, my brain is so numba I believe anything tech ads will tell me, and I’ll defend them till my dying day.

                And or at gates give me migrates, I don’t understand how it programmates. I fail at responding to words, just like those fake AI turds, so I’ll just tell you good day sir"
