Google's Bard Urges Google to Drop Web Environment Integrity (archive.is)

I asked Google Bard whether it thought Web Environment Integrity was a good or bad idea. Surprisingly, not only did it respond that it was a bad idea, it even went on to urge Google to drop the proposal.

AI feed from various types of information, in this case public information. Public information about WEI consist of a bunch of tech articles criticizing it. Thus, the AI tells you WEI is bad. It's as worthless as the majority of AI based replies about certain topics because it will just summarize popular opinions, as that is the majority of its dataset on a given topic.

It might depends on the AI.

I can't speak for Bard, but ChatGPT's data isn't any more recent than 2021. As it often reminds me.

I know. I just thought it was a bit ironic seeing such a strongly worded response from it.
