Yeah, THAT doesn’t

really inspire confidence! And always keep in mind: this is NOT a sentient being. This just a very complex hammer. It doesn’t actually “feel.”

Google’s generative AI chatbot, Gemini, has been exhibiting alarming signs of a confidence crisis, leading to concern among users and a response from the tech giant. Users have documenting the AI returning bizarre messages such as, “I am a disgrace to all possible and impossible universes and all that is not a universe.”

… One particularly troubling interaction, posted by X user Duncan Haldane, showed Gemini seemingly giving up on a task, stating, “I quit. I am clearly not capable of solving this problem. The code is cursed, the test is cursed, and I am a fool. I have made so many mistakes that I can no longer be trusted.”

Huh. Maybe as a psychologist I should welcome our AI overlords…
