Musk is a self-serving jackass and a near-constant liar who is feebly trying to stay relevant in A.I., and the fools who host this show bend over backwards to try to treat him like a fair-minded person with no ulterior motives.
Bloomberg is pretty pathetic and disgusting.

Ben Reitzes makes a good point, which highlights how potentially fraught the ongoing and (according to many pundits) inevitable transition from search to AI-centric search will be. As he points out, Google Search and products like it are in the trust business. Controversies involving users not getting what they’d requested from what is currently a separate product does, of course, threaten to undermine trust in Google Search and possibly even YouTube. Although I’m certain this issue with Gemini’s image generator will get resolved, whether this controversy results in any lasting damage is another question. As adoption of generative AI grows, there’s a chance newer users will be increasingly unforgiving. People who’ve been using chatbots for a while now are well aware of their flaws, including their sometimes comical/sometimes disturbing tendency to occasionally “hallucinate” and generate falsehoods. These users are probably more inclined to take a misstep like this in stride (I can only speak for myself, but this isn’t that big a deal to me). However, people who’ve just begun using generative AI may not be as comfortable with new technologies to begin with. Consequently, in the extreme, this glitch in Gemini’s image generator (and the opinions it generates) could trouble them enough to be hesitant about using generative AI altogether. If anything, this episode highlights the intensity of the competitive pressures that technology companies face to provide users with new and innovative products.
