Google is temporarily suspending a Gemini AI feature for users due to recent issues: Here’s why
Google’s AI work with Gemini has hit a major roadblock as major failures in the technology have forced the company to shelve one of its features. Google Gemini AI also includes a tool that allows users to create images using AI technology, and the feature we’re talking about is creating a human image.
Google has acknowledged concerns about the AI tool and has decided to discontinue the feature, promising to release an improved version soon.
It all started when Google released an image creation tool for humans earlier this month, and people complained about inaccurate details in historical images, a big red flag for the company and its AI ambitions. Google has taken a cautious line in AI advancements, which explains its slower adoption compared to OpenAI’s ChatGPT in the market.
AI models are trained based on existing data, but the technology seems to have flaws, leading to such situations and forcing the company to shut down the tool before it causes more problems for the public. AI getting the details of historical figures wrong could attract unwanted attention and scrutiny from a government that is already looking for ways to regulate and manage the need for AI tools at a rapid pace.
Companies already offer paid versions of their AI tools, which means the technology can’t go to waste, especially for people who are now paying to use these advanced tools.
We’ll be watching closely when Google releases a revised AI tool, and hopefully the Gemini AI model can address these concerns and provide accurate results.
