Google simply debuted a sequence of Super Bowl adverts exhibiting how small companies use Gemini AI throughout all 50 states, however the cheese lovers on the market would possibly discover one thing a bit of off about its Wisconsin one. As noticed by @natejhake on X, the advert exhibits Gemini AI producing textual content that claims Gouda accounts for “50 to 60 % of the world’s cheese consumption” — a stat that isn’t fairly correct.
The cheese is undoubtedly standard in Europe, however the identical can’t be stated for the remainder of the world. “While Gouda is probably going the commonest single selection in world commerce, it’s nearly assuredly not probably the most broadly consumed,” Andrew Novakovic, E.V. Baker Professor of Agricultural Economics Emeritus at Cornell University, tells The Verge.
”I don’t suppose there may be onerous knowledge to substantiate consumption of specific styles of cheeses on a worldwide scale,” Novakovic provides. “My guess is that Indian Paneer or the ever-present ‘recent’ cheeses of South America, Africa, and western and southern Asia have far bigger volumes than Gouda.”
As proven within the industrial, the positive print beneath Gemini’s response reads, “This is a inventive writing help, and isn’t meant to be factual.” But you’d suppose it could a minimum of have a supply to again it up, particularly when the advert depicts a enterprise proprietor utilizing Gemini to fill out descriptions for his or her web site.
Last month, Google began constructing all its AI options into Workspace and in addition raised the value of its subscription. The firm didn’t instantly reply to The Verge’s request for remark.
