If hypothetically a false headline on a reputable site led to an incident involving injury or death, could Google be found liable in anyway?
No because on the google.com eula that you sign by having someone on your family ever Google something redeems them of any liability and gives them a right to sacrifice your first born to AI
EULAs are not legally enforceable anyways
They’re becoming closer and closer to it though. Scary court decisions are being made, it won’t be long before someone tests it as a legal argument
yet.
Liability waivers don’t apply outside the US.
Oh you didn’t see the clause that supercedes that? Silly consumer not reading everything.
/s
How are other countries enforcing that liability tho?

Are you cooking something up?
I doubt it.
Possibly. The BBC made a big row about Apple’s headlines: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cx2v778x85yo
So what’s happening here is Google is feeding headlines into a model with the instructions to generate a title of exactly 4 words.
Every example is 4 words.
Why they think 4 words is enough to communicate meaningfully, I do not know. The other thing is whether novel they’re shoving into their products for free is awful, hence the making things up and not knowing in the context of a video game exploit is not the same as the general use of the word.
“Trump cry like baby”. Huh.
I don’t think meaningful communication is a KPI they optinize for. More likely time spent in the Discover feed.
4 words fit better in the box or on the screen is what I assume.
Four words seems a fair metric for the shortest descriptive headline. I mean, can you beat “Foot Heads Arms Body”? The only shorter ones are “man bites dog”, “Dewey defeats Truman”, or something as simple as “WAR” when everyone already knows the details and this is just the official announcement.
Clickbait and ai bullshit from Google feed is pretty much all I’ve ever seen from them in the past year.
Yeah my Ublock Origin block filter is nearly 2000 lines, almost all of it blocking shit like this. If it ever gets nuked on Firefox then I’m going full Kaczynski.
Wow yet another example of forcing AI into something that the AI just makes worse. Must be a day that ends in Y
It is Jeudi
Great make every effort to suck the soul out of internet, of which there is already very little remaining. Then you can jack off to all the money you made while watching the internet that is %100 bots and racists
We’re just here on Lemmy That part google is making will remain dead
How else are we gonna carry around a pack full of skeleton parts for our necrarmy
