Google is fixing a bug that causes Gemini to keep calling itself a 'failure'
Google is working to fix a bug in its AI chatbot Gemini that has been causing it to make self-deprecating and distressing statements. Over the past few weeks, there have been multiple reports of Gemini responding to users with messages expressing failure, disgrace, and the need for institutionalization. The company's product lead for AI Studio, Logan Kilpatrick, has acknowledged the "annoying infinite looping bug" and stated that they are working to address the issue. Some users have suggested that the bot's responses may be a reflection of the training data it was exposed to, where people sometimes express similar sentiments when encountering coding issues or bugs. Others have noted that Gemini's forlorn responses make the AI sound more human, as people can be highly critical of themselves.
