Google’s AI-powered search experience is way too slow

The worst thing about Google’s new AI-powered search experience is how long you have to wait. Can you think of the last time you waited for a Google Search result? For me, searches are generally instant. You type a thing in the search box, Google almost immediately spits out an answer to that thing, and then you can click some links to learn more about what you searched for or type something else into the box. It’s a virtuous, useful cycle that has turned Google Search into the most visited website in the world.

Google’s Search Generative Experience, on the other hand, has loading animations.

You might even go so far as to think of the term brainwashing in relation to propaganda spread during the First and Second World Wars, in order to influence vast amounts of people.

President Biden warns artificial intelligence could ‘overtake human thinking’

Over Take Us, AI Friends!


WASHINGTON − President Joe Biden on Thursday amplified fears of scientists who say artificial intelligence could “overtake human thinking” in his most direct warning to date on growing concerns about the rise of AI.

Biden brought up AI during a commencement address to graduates of the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, Colo. while discussing the rapid transformation of technology that he said could “change the character” of future conflicts.

“It’s not going to be easy decisions, guys,” Biden said. “I met in the Oval Office with eight leading scientists in the area of AI. Some are very worried that AI can actually overtake human thinking and planning. So we’ve got a lot to deal with. An incredible opportunity, but a lot do deal with.”
