You know how Google's new feature called AI Overviews is prone to spitting out wildly incorrect answers to search queries? In one instance, AI Overviews told a user to use glue on pizza to make sure the cheese won't slide off (pssst...please don't do this.)

Well, according to an interview at The Vergewith Google CEO Sundar Pichai published earlier this week, just before criticism of the outputs really took off, these "hallucinations" are an "inherent feature" of AI large language models (LLM), which is what drives AI Overviews, and this feature "is still an unsolved problem."

Use DuckDuckGo. Like most giant corporations, the only thing they'll respond to is less users/money.

Obligatory "DDG is Bing without Microsoft's tracking." Just calling a spade a spade.

"But we're like 2-3 years away from creating a truly sentient AGI, which will be like E.V.A, that Junkmetalman had in his robosuit in The Revengers vs. Purple Malthusianist Guy 3: Juggernaut! Didn't you like E.V.A and her sarcastic jokes?"

how about stop supporting them in any way, stop using their products, stop pretending they care about anything other than how to better prostitute themselves, given that it is literally illegal for them to do anything but "increase value for stockholders". They chose to sell themselves into slavery, literally.

how about reorienting towards the actual problem, your legal system
