GLOBAL ELECTIONS

🤚 Gemini refuses to answer election queries

Our Report: Google has announced that it will be restricting all election-related queries made in Gemini (it’s ChatGPT equivalent), in any country where an election is taking place.

Key Points:

• The update is live in India—where elections will take place in April—and the US, and is expected to be rolled out to 50+ countries, which are holding elections this year.

• Any questions relating to political parties, candidates, or politicians will now return a preset message: “I’m still learning how to answer this question. In the meantime, try Google Search.”

• However, Google is still making tweaks to Gemini’s responses, as it can return more detailed responses to follow-up election-related questions or queries containing typos.

Why you should care: This highlights Google’s concern over the weaponization of Gemini to manipulate voters, and its potential to produce inaccurate responses (after the controversy surrounding its image generator) and spotlights the need for tighter AI regulatory controls.
