Google CEO: Gemini AI picture variety scandal ‘offended our customers’

Hello everybody

I need to handle the current points with problematic textual content and picture responses within the Gemini app (previously Bard). I do know that a few of its responses have offended our customers and proven bias — to be clear, that’s utterly unacceptable and we received it mistaken.

Our groups have been working across the clock to handle these points. We’re already seeing a considerable enchancment on a variety of prompts. No Al is ideal, particularly at this rising stage of the business’s growth, however we all know the bar is excessive for us and we’ll maintain at it for nonetheless lengthy it takes. And we’ll evaluate what occurred and ensure we repair it at scale.

Our mission to prepare the world’s data and make it universally accessible and helpful is sacrosanct. We’ve all the time sought to provide customers useful, correct, and unbiased data in our merchandise. That’s why individuals belief them. This must be our strategy for all our merchandise, together with our rising Al merchandise.

We’ll be driving a transparent set of actions, together with structural adjustments, up to date product tips, improved launch processes, strong evals and red-teaming, and technical suggestions. We’re wanting throughout all of this and can make the mandatory adjustments.

Whilst we study from what went mistaken right here, we must also construct on the product and technical bulletins we’ve made in Al over the past a number of weeks. That features some foundational advances in our underlying fashions e.g. our 1 million long-context window breakthrough and our open fashions, each of which have been effectively acquired.

We all know what it takes to create nice merchandise which can be used and beloved by billions of individuals and companies, and with our infrastructure and analysis experience we now have an unimaginable springboard for the Al wave. Let’s concentrate on what issues most: constructing useful merchandise which can be deserving of our customers’ belief.
