"People should not "blindly trust" everything AI tools tell them, the boss of Google's parent company Alphabet told the BBC. In an exclusive interview, chief executive Sundar Pichai said that AI models are "prone to errors" and urged people to use them alongside other tools. Mr Pichai said it highlighted the importance of having a rich information ecosystem, rather than solely relying on AI technology."
"The tech world has been awaiting the latest launch of Google's consumer AI model, Gemini 3.0, which is starting to win back market share from ChatGPT. From May this year, Google began introducing a new "AI Mode" into its search, integrating its Gemini chatbot which is aimed at giving users the experience of talking to an expert. At the time, Mr Pichai said the integration of Gemini with search signalled a "new phase of the AI platform shift"."
AI models are prone to errors and should not be blindly trusted. Users should use AI tools alongside other information sources and grounded products that provide accurate information. AI tools can be helpful for creative writing and tasks suited to their strengths. Google's Gemini 3.0 consumer model is launching, and Google has introduced an "AI Mode" in Search integrating the Gemini chatbot to provide an expert-like conversational experience. The integration aims to help Google regain market share from competitors such as ChatGPT and to remain competitive in online search. Research testing AI chatbots found examples of inaccurate news story summaries and errors in AI-generated answers, underscoring the need for a rich information ecosystem.
