Thoughts on Google AI?

Supposedly it’s accurate 91% of the time, but it hardly seems that way.
Furthermore, when Google AI is wrong, it can be comically wrong in a way that even the dumbest person will never be.
Even when it’s correct, I don’t really care about seeing the summaries of the webpages before I open the webpages.
I wish there was a way to turn off Google AI, rather than having it as a mandatory part of every Google search.

Ask google AI how accurate it is.

That’s what I did. I asked Google AI how accurate it is, and it told me it’s 91% accurate.
But it hardly seems that way based on my personal experience.
Anecdotally it seems to me that Google AI is no more than about 70% accurate. And it’s like totally comically inaccurate at least 15% of the time.

As of right now, that’s the worst it will be. It will get exponentially better exponentially faster.

Google has had mandatory AI usage on all its searches for at least 12 months now.
No, I don’t think I’ve ever used any AI other than Google AI. And I wouldn’t be using Google AI if I had a choice.

It’s about the same as all the rest. Most of the time it gives you useful information, but you can’t actually trust anything it says that isn’t sourced.
Like all AI, for most topics it’s a research starting point, not a solution

AI is garbage. AI will be losing its jobs to humans in a few years if it isn't careful.

AI is trash. You've got way too many gullible people who are already falling victim to clearly false AI information/stats/results, not to mention all of the social media bullshite propaganda being churned out. YouTube is overrun with AI garbage, even on innocuous subjects.
Theoretically, if AI were capable of being a completely unbiased, unmanipulatable information source, it could help advance society by leaps and bounds.
Instead it's going to, and is already being, used as either an intellectual crutch for lower IQ individuals, which is dangerous considering you've got those folks relying on it for things like medical diagnoses. I can't even get AI to spit out accurate UK/Reds/Bengals statistics and youve got people out here trying to use it in its current iteration to replace doctors. Stupid.
The far more pressing/glaring issue is how it's being used by bad actors to manipulate society on social media. It won't take but a generation of data manipulation and inundating with propaganda to achieve their nefarious goals.

Who grades how accurate it is?
Thats who I want as my AI/personal assistant.

Always triangulate AI responses with common sense and real experiences or expertise.
I use Gemini (Google), Claude, GPT, and Perplexity for different tasks as they are good at different things.
Don't get too reliant on any of them. They'll make you look dumb if you're not careful.

It is great for summarizing 10 different gardening blogs on a specific gardening question I have, without me having to go read all 10 of them myself. If it's something of great importance, or requiring any considerable investment of time or money or risk, I don't simply rely on Gemini or any AI. I will start there for a summary and then independently fact check. It gives me a great starting point, on some subjects I have no facts to check, AI gives that to me.

Google AI will argue with you really hard in favor of woke points/comments/opinions. When you explain its obvious bias to it, it doubles down. ChatGPT is more level-headed.

AI is a tool, if you use it correctly it can be great. It still makes mistakes but it is really handy finding scientific articles and giving the data and authors conclusions, but it sucks and coming to a conclusion itself. I need to go through the papers and read them anyway, and often the conclusion of the author is NOT what the data supports, but what I really need is the data and the references within usually point me to raw data.

Just like any search engine it's gonna depend on your competency of the language you use.
