I just tried #Google #AI Gemini. It's actually terrible. I tried having a conversation about a topic that I know, #bicycles, and it was repeatedly telling me wrong information.

It was, of course, responding with a ton of "fake it until you make it" confidence in its voice, but it was wrong as frequently as it was right.

Try it yourself - speak to it about a subject that you know a lot about, and it will make mistakes time and time again.

@JohnMFlores Hubris is not a praiseworthy attribute, whether in human or machine.

@bibliolater I would hope that would be the case, but the world that we live in is proving otherwise
