• Google has removed Gemma from its AI Studio after a U.S. senator accused the AI model of fabricating accusations of sexual misconduct against her.
• In a letter to Google CEO Sundar Pichai, Senator Marsha Blackburn said Gemma falsely claimed that during a 1987 state senate campaign, a state trooper alleged that Blackburn “pressured him to obtain prescription drugs for her and that the relationship involved non-consensual acts”“None of this is true, not even the campaign year which was actually 1998,” Blackburn wrote.
