Yesterday, there was the usual slew of artificial computer-generated news stories on YouTube about GM closing down all factories in north america (happens about once a month).
Well I typed in "is GM closing down in the US" in Google and the Gemini generated answer said "Yes, GM has announced the closure of all plants in the US" and put up those fake YT videos as reference....
They already do this through data determination routines in LLMs, unfortunately they suffer from the same type of infection as the data itself.
You probably would get better results from literally any other AI Gemini is routinely the worst. I don't know what Google are playing at surely they could actually put some real effort into this but they just seem to be doing it in the most naive way possible.
It comes to something when the Chinese are been the most innovative.
