Google plans to reactivate the creation of photos of people via its artificial intelligence model, Gemini AI, in the coming weeks.
The company had paused the feature after the software produced inaccurate graphics regarding historical facts, such as female Popes and black Nazi soldiers.
"The tool did not work as expected," Google DeepMind CEO Demis Hassabis said during a conference at the Mobile World Congress technology fair in Barcelona.
“We took the feature offline to fix it. We hope to have it back online very soon, in the next few weeks.”
When Google released its generative chatbot Bard a year ago, it was already facing problems with how AI created images of planet Earth outside the solar system, including in materials used to promote the technology.
Earlier this month, Big G renamed Bard as Gemini, under whose umbrella are the different offerings of generative AI models, from the basic ones to the most complex and performant ones for enterprises.
On the occasion of the Mobile World Congress in Spain, the company also announced the arrival of Gemini within Android Auto, the platform that allows you to access information and phone apps from the screen of your car.
In markets where Gemini is a standalone application, such as the US, users can already take advantage of the chatbot to receive summaries of unread messages on their phone and ask questions with their voice, obtaining more precise answers than those it provides today Google Assistant.
