Conservative activist sues Google over AI-generated statements

Al Jazeera

Conservative activist Robby Starbuck sued Google, alleging that the tech giant's artificial intelligence systems generated "outrageously false" information about him. On Wednesday, Starbuck said in the lawsuit, filed in Delaware state court, that Google's AI systems falsely called him a "child rapist," "serial sexual abuser" and "shooter" in response to user queries and delivered defamatory statements to millions of users. "Hallucinations are a well-known issue for all LLMs, which we disclose and work hard to minimise," Castaneda said. "But as everyone knows, if you're creative enough, you can prompt a chatbot to say something misleading." Starbuck is best known for opposing diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives.
