Governments are regulating generative AI to address public concerns about misinformation and fake news, which has coincided with the release of this update. Generative AI includes tools for creating images and videos.
According to Gemini, "I'm still learning how to answer this question" when questioned about impending elections, such as the U.S. presidential matchup between Joe Biden and Donald Trump. Until then, you might want to give Google a go. In December, Google announced domestic limits, stating they will be implemented prior to the election.
"In preparation for the many elections happening around the world in 2024 and out of an abundance of caution, we are restricting the types of election-related queries for which Gemini will return responses," a spokeswoman for the business stated.
South Africa and India, the biggest democracy in the world, are among the many big nations that will soon host national elections. The United States is not the only one. Tech companies in India are being urged to get government approval before releasing "unreliable" or trial AI products to the public. These tools need also be labeled if they have the potential to provide incorrect answers.
Google halted the chatbot's image-generation capability late last month due to inconsistencies in some historical images of persons provided by Gemini. This has put Google's AI technologies under scrutiny.
In reaction to what he deemed as the chatbot's "biased" and "completely unacceptable" comments, Google CEO Sundar Pichai stated that the firm was looking into the matter.
In the months leading up to the June elections for the European Parliament, Meta Platforms, the parent company of Facebook, announced last month that it will build a team to combat misinformation and the misuse of generative AI.
