谷歌的AI Overview功能再次出现错误,这次竟然无法正确识别当前年份。多位用户反映,当询问当前年份时,AI Overview错误地回答为2024年,即使在周四上午,询问是否为2025年时,也得到了肯定回答。谷歌已于周四晚些时候修复了此bug,但未给出具体原因,仅表示正在进行更新以避免类似问题。此前,AI Overview还曾建议用户每天吃一块小石头以补充维生素和矿物质,以及在披萨上加胶水以帮助奶酪粘连。尽管问题不断,谷歌CEO Sundar Pichai 仍强调该功能已覆盖100多个国家,拥有15亿用户,并在美国和印度等市场推动了超过10%的搜索使用率。

AI tools are touted as capable helpers that can easily help you research, code, summarize, write and bring you knowledge of any kind. But sometimes simple questions befuddle them. Google’s AI Overviews, for example, is confused what year it is.

Several users reported over the past few days that when they asked Google what year it is, AI Overviews said the current year is 2024.

This reporter got the same answer on Thursday morning when Google was asked if it’s 2025 right now.

Google finally fixed the bug late on Thursday.

When asked why this happened, Google didn’t provide a particular reason, only saying that it was working on an update to avoid such issues.

“As with all Search features, we rigorously make improvements and use examples like this to update our systems. The vast majority of AI Overviews provide helpful, factual information, and we’re actively working on an update to address this type of issue,” a Google spokesperson said in a statement.

Google has been working on AI Overviews for a few years now, and the feature has so far made some notable blunders — to name just a couple, it has recommended users eat “one small rock per day,” saying rocks are a good source of vitamins and minerals, and even suggested adding glue in order to help cheese stick to a pizza. When the company rolled out the feature in Hindi in India, TechCrunch found that its answers were often inconsistent and confusing.

In recent weeks, Google CEO Sundar Pichai has touted usage numbers for AI Overviews, saying that the feature is now being used by 1.5 billion users in over 100 countries. He also added that in markets like the U.S. and India, the feature is driving over 10% usage of the search engine for related queries. The company is betting a lot on driving people to use its AI-powered search and Q&A features more.
