The more I read about the Microsoft implementation of ‘AI’ the more I wonder what on earth are they thinking? Their AI system is an absolute shambles and about 99% of the output is nonsense. See the example below:
Microsoft AI returns absolute nonsense when asked about who Kevin Beaumont is
I did not realise how inaccurate Microsoft’s Al is. It’s really bad This is just one example – it lists a range of lawsuits I’ve filed, but they’re all fictional – it invented them and made up the citations. It says I gave Microsoft’s data to @briankrebs. It says Krebs is suing me. It says @malwaretech works for me. The list goes on and on. Very eyebrow raising this is being baked into next release of Windows 11 and Office. It will directly harm people who have no knowledge or recourse.
I mean I can understand if it got one or two facts wrong because the data sources might not be correct, but to get every single detail wrong requires extra skill. The really scary part is that Google AI search is not much better and both companies are in a race to replace their search engine with AI responses. Microsoft is going a step further and including it as a default option in Windows. I wonder how much of the user data being stored on a windows computer is being used to train these AI engines.
There needs to be an effort to create a search engine that filters out these AI generated responses and websites to go back to the old style search engines that actually returned useful & correct results.
