Google's AI Facing Severe Criticism

Google's new AI search feature, the AI Overview tool, has come under fire for providing false and strange answers like claiming Barack Obama is Muslim and astronauts played with cats on the Moon. 

Launched in the U.S. last week and in the UK last month the tool aims to simplify information searches but has faced widespread criticism due to its erratic behavior.

Some bizarre responses include suggesting mixing non toxic glue with cheese for pizza and stating geologists recommend eating one rock daily. 

It also inaccurately claimed only 17 of the 42 U.S. presidents were white drawing concerns about its reliability from social media users.

Google defends its tool calling these incidents isolated and not reflective of its overall performance. 

The company assures that most AI overviews provide accurate information and they're working to address policy violations and improve their systems based on feedback.

This isn't the first time AI has faced issues. Other products like ChatGPT and OpenAI's chatbot have also encountered problems highlighting the ongoing challenge of ensuring accuracy and reliability in AI generated content.
