Gemini AI has faced a backlash, with Google admitting to being troubling

Google’s Gemini AI has received a backlash from the demo video released for its features.

Tech company and artificial intelligence (AI) pioneer Google has received a lot of criticism over the past few days for posting a demo video detailing the capabilities of its new multimodal AI model, Gemini.

Google launches Gemini AI

After revealing a possible large language model (LLM) to the public at the I/O developer conference held in June, the tech giant finally unveiled Gemini AI earlier this week. Google CEO Sundar Pichai shared a video on the X app promoting the potential of AI models, highlighting their interactivity capabilities.

In what looks like an interaction between a human and an AI voice assistant, Gemini accurately identifies a duck created using lines and shapes. The video shows that Gemini AI can recognize visual pictures and physical objects, and even distinguish between them.

This unique feature showcases a new frontier in AI design and modeling. Gemini AI emphasizes the more comprehensive use of LLMs, which could elevate a great user experience, making it a stiff competition for OpenAI’s ChatGPT. In addition, Google seems to be trying to tell the public that with Gemini, they can have a smooth voice conversation with the AI.

Unfortunately, the six-minute video sparked some negative reactions from the public, who felt that the content had been tampered with. Notably, the company added a description on YouTube stating that “for the purposes of this demo, the latency has been reduced, and the Gemini output has been shortened for brevity.” ”

However, when sharing the demo video on the X app, there is no mention of a disclaimer.

Google admits that the show video was edited

Google openly admitted to Bloomberg that the presentation was not conducted in real time.

However, the company stated, “The video is based on real-world multimodal prompts and test outputs that illustrate the possibilities of interacting with Gemini.” ”

To achieve the six-minute presentation, the Google team behind the AI development used static images and provided text prompts that Gemini responded to. This is different from the concept that Google leads the audience to believe.

Despite the backlash, Google said it is still looking forward to “seeing what people create when the Gemini Pro opens on December 13.”
