Bible Verses of the Day

1 Behold my servant, whom I uphold, my chosen, in whom my soul delights; I have put my Spirit upon him; he will bring forth justice to the nations. 2 He will not cry aloud or lift up his voice, or make it heard in the street; 3 a bruised reed he will not break, and a faintly burning wick he will not quench; he will faithfully bring forth justice. 4 He will not grow faint or be discouraged till he has established justice in the earth; and the coastlands wait for his law. [Isaiah 42:1-4, ESV]

If you want to ask Google’s AI chatbot a question about an upcoming election, you will have to do it from a country where there are no elections taking place. TechCrunch has learned that the search giant has started to restrict queries made in Gemini when they relate to elections, in any market globally where elections are taking place.

The search giant confirmed to TechCrunch that it started rolling out the restrictions on Gemini to limit surfacing answers about election-related queries globally. TechCrunch understands that the update is already live in the U.S. and has begun rolling out in India and all major countries where elections are taking place in the coming months.

The shift highlights not only the role that generative AI has been playing, and has the potential to play, in the election process, but also Google’s concern about how the service might get weaponized, as well as produce inaccurate or misleading responses.

Have you ever stumbled upon a video so realistic yet discovered it was nothing but a fabrication, a product of artificial intelligence? In a world where seeing is no longer believing, the phenomenon of AI-generated videos takes center stage, challenging our perception of reality. With the advancement of technology, the ability to create hyper-realistic videos that mimic human behavior and speech has never been more accessible.

This presents a double-edged sword: a marvel of artificial intelligence that harbors the potential for misuse, leading to misinformation and ethical dilemmas. This article serves as your navigational beacon through the intricate world of AI-generated videos, unveiling the mathematical and technological prowess behind them, their applications, and the societal implications they entail.

While AI-generated content opens up new avenues for creativity and innovation, it simultaneously poses significant challenges in discerning fact from fiction.
