A PhD student at Stanford noticed her classmates were asking Al to write their breakup texts.
So she ran a study. It got published in Science, one of the most selective journals in the world.
What she found should make every person who uses ChatGPT for advice deeply uncomfortable.
Court holds Google liable for false claims in AI Overviews. Seems significant.
"A regular search engine just points to outside websites. But AI overviews generate 'independent, new, and substantive statements' by evaluating and combining content from various third-party sites" the-decoder
A German regional court has ruled that Google is directly liable for the content of its AI search overviews. According to the court, previous limited liability protections for search engine operators don't apply to AI overviews. In this case, Google's AI had falsely linked two publishers to fraud and made claims that didn't appear in any of the linked sources. The ruling could set a precedent for AI-generated content liability worldwide.

"When the hype inevitably dies down, as it has done many times before, through AI summers and winters (see my talk here if you were not aware of these cycles), you want to have skills. You want to have a degree that matters."

I'd guess you made the assumption about how writing processes and workflows, especially ciitations, work for you applies to many, if not all. This is, especially in (academic's) social media environment not the best starting point
Yes, and I hate everything about that spin of AI as thought partners. Lately I learned that engaging in such conversation is a thing where I ask dumb-looking questions like "is this really the problem to solve here? And is that Ai really the best solution to that?" Most of the time, it is not
-_-
Often people then are flabbergasted by their own shortsight. Whether that changes anything, I am unsure. We see Ai in Ed being pushed in from the top, and often those people do not care about problems or solutions but more about reputation (their own and their institution's)

Google had to bear 80 % of legal fess and make sure some statements would not occur anymore on their AI summaries. I wonder if they manage to do that and provide proof.
If so, we might even hope for a new Right to Forget-like option. A right not to be mentioned by AI summaries.
