Landmark German ruling declares Google's AI Overviews are Google's own words and makes it liable for false answers

A German regional court has ruled that Google is directly liable for the content of its AI search overviews. According to the court, previou

Let’s fucking go

This is HUGE.

1. The court holds Google responsible for statements made by its AI, considering them Google's statements (search engines have limited liability for results in their engine as they're the words of other sites/companies/people), meaning when their AI lies/hallucinates they're liable for the defamation/harm resulting from those statements.

2. Google's defense that customers are generally aware of the lack of reliability and are responsible for fact checking was dismissed. As the court pointed out, that would "significantly diminish" AI Search's stated purpose and it can't be distinguished from Google's business practices/statements as a search tool.

3. Studies have found about 91% of Google's everyday AI responses are accurate, leaving millions of searches per HOUR with potential liability for falsehoods. 56% of correct responses weren't supported by the sources the AI listed. Both of which mean Google is now liable for a LOT more AI "errors."

4. Google was held liable for 80% of court costs in this case and this precedent is expected to reverberate around the world. This is a massive shift from the 3rd-party search provider role Google has previously played and it comes right as they've tied ALL searches to their AI search.

TL;DR Google reeeeeally stepped in it this time.

I'm in ninth place, but they ordered thirty-two copies ( ͡• ͜ʖ ͡•)

Which will be available to me first: the huge library system in my immediate neighborhood with 32 copies, or the tiny, one-branch, suburb system with more copies than holds?

I did not realize that there was soccer going on in Ohio, but that explains some of the absolute insane, crazy, dangerous driving I've seen going on for the last two weeks.

One guy slammed on his brakes and started to get out of his car on a highway entrance ramp, but the horns of the 20 cars behind him had him reevaluating real quick.

Can Christians be Freemasons and in good standing with the church

Yes, Christian not Freemason

No, Christian not Freemason

Yes, Christian and Freemason

No, Christian and Freemason

Just to be clear I understand that the Catholic Church doesn’t allow for being part of the Freemasons, but I’m curious if this sentiment is fairly cross denominational. If you are a Christian who has no problem with freemasonry I’m really curious to hear your reasoning!

Freemasonry is demonic af.

things were bad once so you must not complain when they get bad again

[trunk--slamchest]

You're ungrateful, back in my day things were bad (they weren't) so we pulled ourselves up by our bootstraps (we didn't) and look where we are!

hey sorry I snapped at you, I've just had a really hard day and [remembers focusing on myself is selfish] maybe it's your fault for provoking me?

Experience is required, gathered in many kinds of bouts and temptations, to be able to meet the devil when he comes and enters into judgment with us, wants us pious, and, on the basis of the Law, argues with us about what it means to have done right or not. Before an untried and inexperienced Christian has learned his lesson, the devil has so disturbed him that he must fear and tremble and does not know which way to turn. Therefore we must learn to cling to Christ's Word and comfort alone and to permit the devil no argument about our own works or piety.

-Martin Luther
