Google’s Bard AI chatbot received highly negative feedback from its own employees during testing, raising concerns about the company’s approach to AI ethics. Despite the unfavorable reviews, Google decided to release the chatbot, calling it an “experiment” and including prominent disclaimers. Employees are displeased with the company’s strategy for AI development, as AI ethics reviews are almost entirely voluntary and Google executive Jen Gennai allegedly stated that upcoming AI products could aim for “80, 85 percent, or something” on “fairness.”
