Google has responded to criticism about inaccuracies in Gemini AI images, introducing a model update while acknowledging concerns about biased historical depictions.
Gemini AI Improvements
Amid controversy surrounding inaccurate images generated by Gemini AI, Google has released two updates to the model. The first upgrade to Gemini Advanced allows users to edit and run Python code snippets directly from within the interface. This feature allows you to experiment with Python-based code with the goal of streamlining your workflow and validating functionality.
Business Plan Update
Google has also introduced updates to its Business and Enterprise plans, giving users access to 1.0 Ultra, one of the company’s most advanced models. These plans now include strengthened data protection measures that will prevent Gemini models from using conversations for educational purposes, addressing concerns raised by major companies such as Samsung.
Image issues persist
Despite these updates, criticism continues about Gemini AI’s image output, particularly its historical depictions. Google developer Jack Krawczyk acknowledged the issue and said the team was working to find an immediate solution. Social media users complained about the inaccuracies, with some expressing dismay at Google’s handling of the situation.
Extensive Industry Discussion
The discussion of biased AI extends beyond Gemini, with users highlighting similar issues with other models, such as ChatGPT developed by OpenAI. Elon Musk joined the conversation and discussed his AI model Grok, which is expected to release an upgraded version soon. However, Groq was also suspected of sharing its name with the AI language processing chip Groq, causing confusion within the industry.
