I think @Microw@lemm.ee has the right idea on how to handle this type of issue. Hopefully they will improve the messaging around this, because I’m getting really tired of explaining to people how what we have is not true AI.
Honestly though this is nothing new for Google, they’ve been providing answers and web results with false information since their inception. You as a user will always need to do some vetting, Google is never going to be able to give you fully accurate information. They’re just sending you to places that may contain more information on the topic you’re searching for. Or at least, that’s how you should use them.
I’m saying most of the time people are correctly complaining about the over-promising that’s happening around AIs. Now here’s an example of a CEO acknowledging the limitations, and yes; perhaps still over-promising on some degree. But the fact that we’re seeing actual acknowledgement of the limitations is a positive thing. Change doesn’t happen overnight, but this is a step in the right direction.
I say all this as someone with a strong distaste of modern google. I actively avoid their services as much as reasonably possible. I’ve tried their AI and found it to be more trouble than it’s worth (what the hell is that control panel). But I can still recognize a positive change when I see one, my distaste of the company doesn’t change that.
