@arstechnica "Potentially impacting all AI search engines and chatbots known to poorly paraphrase source links, a German court has ruled that Google is liable for false statements in AI Overviews."

Tbh this was also an issue with the non-AI overviews that would occasionally show an out-of-context snippet of a site. It's been a struggle for decades to convince people that "Google" is not actually an information source, just a search engine.

@arstechnica Searching is my primary use for Gemini! With one prompt I can get Gemini to pull from many places to get my answer instead of searching and having to manually go to a ton of sites and taking a LOT more time.

@arstechnica "After smearing publishers", libel is libel even if you use an algorithm to generate it

Also, how does right to be forgotten work with AI?

@arstechnica Accountability and responsibility are such core problems. It's telling that the tech industry does everything they can to minimize or avoid accountability and liability; they don't care that they're creating a world where nobody is accountable for or able to solve the problems their products cause.
