Meta’s chatbot, called BlenderBot, labeled Mark Zuckerberg “too creepy and manipulative.” It also falsely claimed the election was stolen from Donald Trump and said that it’s “not impossible” Jews control the world economy. Google is opening limited demos of its LaMDA chatbot. Google’s cautious approach to testing comes just weeks after a disastrous public test of a chatbot created by Meta. The “List It” demo lets testers “share a goal or topic, and LaMDA will break it down into a list of helpful subtasks.” A third demo called “Talk About It (Dogs Edition)” lets testers have a “fun, open-ended conversation about dogs and only dogs, which explores LaMDA’s ability to stay on topic even if you try to veer off-topic.” The “Imagine It” demo prompts users to name a place and then “offers paths to explore your imagination,” according to the company. Users will have to choose between several scenarios. Google’s first public test of LaMDA appears designed to minimize controversy. He was then fired in July for what Google said were violations of “employment and data security policies” after he publicly shared transcripts of his conversations with the bot. With Google Chat, teams collaborate via text, build collaborative chat rooms, share documents, deliver presentations, and establish web conferences. The senior engineer was initially put on paid leave following his claims about LaMDA’s sentience. Google Chat is a secure communications tool designed to provide easy business communications within the Google Workspace ecosystem. “Who am I to tell God where he can and can’t put souls?”

“When LaMDA claimed to have a soul and then was able to eloquently explain what it meant by that, I was inclined to give it the benefit of the doubt,” Lemoine said at the time. Lemoine added that his Christian faith helped him recognize LaMDA’s sentience and claimed that the chatbot “wants to be acknowledged as an employee of Google rather than as property of Google.” ‘Strange dots and markings’ appear in Australian outback Google, Meta poach hundreds of Twitter employees put off by Elon MuskĪlphabet’s shares fall after Google parent misses revenue estimates Massachusetts man pleads guilty in murder of jogging Google employee near her mother’s home
