Google Forced To Roll Back Several Features Of Its Gemini AI Chatbot, Called PM Modi A 'Fascist’

Google, the tech giant, announced that it swiftly addressed the concerns surrounding the Gemini AI tool. The tool faced criticism from the Indian government for its perceived 'biased' response to a question about Prime Minister Narendra Modi. This triggered a massive online debate over a question posed to Prime Minister Narendra Modi using Google Gemini. The situation escalated to the extent that the Indian Minister of State for Electronics and Technology, Rajeev Chandrasekhar, had to step in with a warning for Google. Google clarified that the Gemini AI tool is developed in accordance with its AI Principles and includes safeguards to detect and test various safety risks. The company emphasizes its commitment to identifying and preventing harmful or policy-violating responses within Gemini. The debate on chatbot programming was sparked by a post on the social media platform X on Friday, leading to concerns raised by the Indian government, which hinted at potential action against the company.
