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.”

    That’s a lot of “”“quotation marks”“” for something that is a very well established fact, and absolutely should not be a shock to anyone.

    Yes, it’s an unsolved problem. It always will be, because there is no algorithm for truth. All we can do is get incrementally better.

    We fucked up and we fired the people who could probably solve it and now they won’t talk to us.

    I got a solution, stop being a lil baby and turn off the AI and go on to the next big thing. CRISPR, maybe? Not techbro enough? Make it like Crypto Crispr, only you own this little piece of DNA, and all the corporations that can read the ledger and get your biometrics

    What y’all are forgetting is that when it comes to dominating a technology space, historically, it’s not proving the better product, is providing the cheapest/widest available product. With the goal being to capture enough of the market to get and retain that dominant position. Nobody knows what the threshold is for that until years later when the dust has settled.

    So from Google’s perspective if a new or current rival is going to get there first, then just push it out and fix it live. What are people going to do? Switch to Bing?

    So is you want Google to stop doing this dumb broken LLM shite, use the network effect against them. Switch to a different search provider and browser and encourage all of your friends and family to do so as well.

    This is what competition is now.

    Putting out worthless things simply because everyone else is doing it.

    Hey, Google: if your big tech friends jumped off a cliff, would you join 'em?

    (Also why is the AI assistant on my phone opening up just by typing “hey Google?” 😡)

    Then it sounds like the “web” tab should be the default and the AI Overview should be the optional tab the user has to choose to go click on.

    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”.

    Then what made you think it’s a good idea to include that in your product now?!

    Think I’ll try that glue pizza. An odd taste choice, sure. But google wouldn’t reccomend actually harmful things. They’re the kings of search baby! They would have to be legally responsible as individuals for the millions of cases brought against them. They know that as rich people, they will face the harshest consequences! If anything went wrong, they’d find themselves in a…STICKY situation!!!
