However, the AI’s tendency to hallucinate and produce false information underscores the need for verification. For instance, Bard has previously generated fictitious legal research, causing issues in a legal case. Weinstein’s remarks caution users to double-check the AI’s responses through Google Search.
The contradiction arises when considering Google’s own plans for Bard. During I/O 2023, Google showcased various ways the AI could enhance Google Search, providing in-depth results and creating personalized plans. These applications heavily rely on accurate information. Therefore, Weinstein’s warning may raise doubts about the reliability of the AI model and its integration into Google Search.
