GOOGLE ADMITS IT LOST CONTROL OF IMAGE-GENERATING AI

Google has acknowledged an issue with its AI model Gemini. The model injected inappropriate diversity into historical images, reflecting problems with bias in training data. The flaw sparked debate around diversity, equity, and inclusion in tech. Google implied that it will make improvements in the future but stopped short of a full apology for failing to properly contextualize historical figures in image generation.

IS OPENAI THE NEXT CHALLENGER TRYING TO TAKE ON GOOGLE SEARCH?

OpenAI is working on a web search to compete more directly with Google. It is unclear if the product will be standalone or part of ChatGPT. Competition in the search space is filling up quickly with the addition of Copilot on Bing, newcomers like Perplexity, and Google's Gemini Copilot. A YouTube Short featuring Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella talking about competing with Google is available in the article.
