The first internal comms on Gemini from Sundar

From: Sundar Pichai To: Google

"Hi everyone

I want to address the recent issues with problematic text and image responses in the Gemini app (formerly Bard). I know that some of its responses have offended our users and shown bias — to be clear, that's completely unacceptable and we got it wrong.

Our teams have been working around the clock to address these issues. We're already seeing a substantial improvement on a wide range of prompts. No Al is perfect, especially at this emerging stage of the industry's development, but we know the bar is high for us and we will keep at it for however long it takes. And we'll review what happened and make sure we fix it at scale.

Our mission to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful is sacrosanct. We've always sought to give users helpful, accurate, and unbiased information in our products. That's why people trust them. This has to be our approach for all our products, including our emerging Al products.

We'll be driving a clear set of actions, including structural changes, updated product guidelines, improved launch processes, robust evals and red-teaming, and technical recommendations. We are looking across all of this and will make the necessary changes.

Even as we learn from what went wrong here, we should also build on the product and technical announcements we've made in Al over the last several weeks. That includes some foundational advances in our underlying models e.g. our 1 million long-context window breakthrough and our open models, both of which have been well received.

We know what it takes to create great products that are used and beloved by billions of people and businesses, and with our infrastructure and research expertise we have an incredible springboard for the Al wave. Let's focus on what matters most: building helpful products that are deserving of our users' trust.

I think this media coverage is unnecessary. No product is 100% accurate. Few years back, nobody cared about such remarks

Have you followed the news? Google is biased in all of it's products be it Search , Gemini etc. they feed the biased searches to masses to and it messes intellect and thinking of a person. It can be a powerful weapon to create biase against certain groups/organisations.

Until ChatGPT, everyone was praising him 😂 This is exactly why top brass are paid a lot. Ultimately they're responsible for how a company works.

Also, it's not that easy to let DEI folks go. You will never know from which direction and how hard issues will come up.

Yes, they messed it up. But if we check on why it happened, it doesn't mean that they intentionally made everything appear the way it is.

Nothing much, there will be people to praise you when things are good, and to pull you down hard when there's something off.
