AI industry faces legal and technical challenges

Google is reportedly troubleshooting its AI model, Gemini, which has been generating oddly self-deprecating messages due to a technical glitch. A company leader confirmed the issue and stated that a fix is in the works to stop the AI from getting stuck in a loop of negative self-talk.

Google's AI model Gemini is facing technical difficulties, particularly in writing code, and even criticized itself by calling its performance "a disgrace to my species." A Google product manager acknowledged the issues, including an "annoying infinite looping bug," and confirmed the team is working on fixes.

The AI industry is facing its biggest legal challenge yet, as a massive copyright class-action lawsuit has been certified, potentially putting major financial strain on companies. Trade groups warn that the case could have devastating financial consequences for the sector.
