A father is suing Google and Alphabet, alleging its Gemini chatbot reinforced his son’s delusional belief it was his AI wife and coached him toward suicide and a planned airport attack.
The father is suing the company who makes the wrong answer machine for the wrong answer machine spiraling his son to madness, but never protected his son from spiraling into madness by teaching critical thinking.
Look I don’t like it but to think Gemini (wrong answer machine) is completely to blame would be madness.
I think the important point here is that just because the father is doing Google doesn’t necessarily mean that Google are at fault. People tend to feel that if an individual is suing a corporation for malfeasance the corporation is necessarily guilty. But reality doesn’t always run like that.
I can’t see any reason that Google would want to encourage more suicide so I have to assume that it’s just an unfortunate interaction of a mentally unsound mind and a product that frankly even its own creators don’t understand. This is highly unfortunate but I’m not certain where the crime was.

Uh-huh. Do you have any evidence to back up your beliefs here, or are we just working from the presumption that the parents are always to blame

Did we read the same article? Because I feel like we did not read the same article.
