Google is one of the top AI firms in the world, developing bleeding-edge AI under the Gemini umbrella. But Google isn't seen as the leading AI company because OpenAI's ChatGPT went viral before Google had anything to offer end users. Google has been playing catch-up since then. While Gemini has received tremendous upgrades in the past year alone, it's still not as talked about as ChatGPT.
But there is one thing everybody pays attention to when it comes to Gemini AI: the big mistakes that go viral. It first happened with Bard, the name Google used for Gemini AI tech in early 2023. Then we saw AI Overviews recommend putting glue on pizza, an even more dangerous mistake.
Gemini isn't the only AI that hallucinates. ChatGPT and other models do it, too. But Google is synonymous with internet search. Googling has to be accurate and dependable, especially now that Google forces AI searches down our throats.
With that in mind, you'd think that Google would pay attention to any claim Gemini makes publicly. Like, say, Gemini saying that Gouda cheese is the most popular in the world in its new Super Bowl ad. It's not, and Google had to fix its new commercial before it airs this Sunday during Super Bowl LIX.
