- A Gemini bug results in the AI getting stuck in an infinite loop of critical responses, including calling itself a disgrace.
- Google’s Logan Kilpatrick says that the company is working on fixing the bug.
- If you check in on Gemini yourself, the chatbot will assure you that it does not have feelings and it’s just a bug.
While most people have been getting along fine with Gemini, some users have noticed a bug where the AI chatbot seemingly spirals with responses filled with self-loathing and harsh criticism. But before you get too worried about the AI tool, a Google representative has said that the company is working on a fix.
A few users noticed the issue over the past two months, posting the chatbot’s responses on social media (via Business Insider). Engineer Duncan Haldane shared the issue on X, posting screenshots of Gemini’s responses after being given some problems to solve. Instead, the AI posted a series of responses criticizing itself for its failure.
