The weirdness came partway through, when the ad actually showed Google Gemini in action. It told the cheese vendor that Gouda accounts for “50 to 60 percent of the world’s cheese consumption.” Now, Gouda’s hardly a hardcore real head pick like Roquefort or BellaVitano, but there’s also no way it’s pulling in cheddar or mozzarella numbers. Travel blogger Nate Hake and Google-focused Twitter account Goog Enough documented the erroneous initial version of the ad, but Google responded by quietly swapping in a more accurate Gemini-suggested blurb in all live versions of the ad, including the one that aired during the Super Bowl.
They should have kept quiet and let Google show how shit they are on live TV
This is like the dozenth time Google put hallucinations in their AI presentation/AD. They just don‘t care.
Stop calling gpt ai
You put a few GPTs in a trenchcoat and they’re obviously AI. I can’t speak about openAIs offerings since I won’t use it as a cloud service, but local deepseek I’ve tried is certainly AI. People are moving the goalposts constantly, with what seems to me a determination to avoid seeing the future that’s already here. Download deepseek-v2-coder 16b if you have 16GB of ram and 10gb of storage space and see for yourselves, it’s ridiculously low requirements for what it can do, it uses 50% of four cpu cores for like 15 seconds to solve a problem with detailed reasoning steps.
Slightly off topic, but the writing on this article is horrible. Optimizing for Google engagement, it seems. Ironically, an AI would probably have produced something vastly more readable.
Flames burn and smoke asphyxiates, perfectly highlighting why relying on fire is a bad idea.
