There is a certain amount of irony that people try really hard to say that hallucinations are not a big problem anymore and then a company that would benefit from that narrative gets directly hurt by it.

Which of course they are going to try to brush it all away. Better than admitting that this problem very much still exists and isn’t going away anytime soon.

I think that’s why Apple is very slow at rolling out AI if it ever actually will. Downside is way too big than the upside.

They already rolled out an "AI" product. Got humiliated pretty bad, and rolled it back. [0]

They had an opportunity to actually adapt, to embrace getting rapid feedback/iterating: But they are not equipped for it culturally. Major lost opportunity as it could have been a driver of internal change.

I'm certain they'll get it right soon enough though. People were writing off Google in terms of AI until this year.. and oh how attitudes have changed.

Just give Google a year or two.

Google has a pretty amazing history of both messing up products generally and especially "ai like" things, including search.

(Yes I used to defend Google until a few years ago.)
