🔍 Google’s Gemini AI: The Truth Behind the Demo

MAIN FEATURE:

Gemini AI’s Misleading Demo: The most striking revelation this week comes from Google’s introduction of Gemini AI. A TechCrunch article exposed that Google’s impressive demo, which showcased Gemini AI responding in real-time to visual inputs, was not entirely truthful. This has raised significant concerns about the authenticity of Google’s claims and the actual capabilities of Gemini AI.

This revelation casts doubt on the readiness and sophistication of Gemini AI, especially in comparison to existing AI models like OpenAI’s ChatGPT.
