Google CEO Sundar Pichai says problems with its AI can't be solved because hallucinations are an inherent problem in these AI tools.
You know how Google's new feature called AI Overviews is prone to spitting out wildly incorrect answers to search queries? In one instance, AI Overviews told a user to use glue on pizza to make sure the cheese won't slide off (pssst...please don't do this.)
Well, according to an interview at The Vergewith Google CEO Sundar Pichai published earlier this week, just before criticism of the outputs really took off, these "hallucinations" are an "inherent feature" of AI large language models (LLM), which is what drives AI Overviews, and this feature "is still an unsolved problem."
The real answer would be "don't". Have a decent whitelist dor training data with reliable data. Don't just add every orifice of the internet (like reddit) to the training data. Limitations would be good in this case.
Having a curated whitelist would definitely be a good idea, but if it only shows information from a limited list of websites, that would make it a terrible search engine incapable of searching most of the web.
