Landmark German ruling declares Google's AI Overviews are Google's own words and makes it liable for false answers

A German regional court has ruled that Google is directly liable for the content of its AI search overviews. According to the court, previous limited liability protections for search engine operators don't apply to AI overviews.

Imagine this…

You send a private message to a friend. Just something personal.
But before it reaches them, it gets automatically scanned. Not because you did anything wrong, but because everyone is being checked.

That’s the direction proposals like #Chatcontrol and #ProtectEU are heading.

Fijn dat je dit gemaakt hebt en de moeite doet dit te hosten, maar het blijft toch bizar dat we voor zulke zaken afhankelijk zijn van een initiatief van ƩƩn persoon. Dit zou toch beter moeten kunnen… zulke diensten hoort een overheid gewoon voor haar burgers te regelen.
