In the middle of 2024, with AI already fully implemented in our lives for two years, we are still amazed by the incomprehensible errors they generate. For Copilot, some of the most beloved actors and broadcasters of recent decades have died in 2024..
Segn Copilot, Ian McKellen (Gandalf in the films The Lord of the Rings), William Shatner (the legendary Captain Kirk from Star Trek, who recently became the oldest person to go into space), or David Attenborough, the most legendary documentary presenter, they have died.
The British actor joins the list Michael Caineor the beloved actress of Mary Poppins, Julie Andrews. To everyone’s joy, Copilot’s information is completely false.
Copilot deals with the life and death of famous people
For conspiracy lovers, all of these celebrities are British, except for Shatner who is Canadian. They are all globally loved and admired, both professionally and personally. And they are all quite old, over 85 years old. The “grandfather” is the great David Attenborough, who reaches 98 years old.
Why has Copilot “killed” some of the most loved and admired celebrities in the world? Why are almost everyone British? It is an incomprehensible hallucination, at this point. Poor William Shatner has been upsetwhen reading it.
These are not manipulated responses. The have received several journalists from The Vergeasking Copilot about famous personalities who died in 2024:
The Verge
As we see in the screenshots, among the deceased in 2024 Copilot has included Angela Lansbury, who died… in 2022. Also Betty White, from The golden girlswho did it in 2021, and the singer Tony Bennett, who left us in 2023. Come on, he hasn’t given a single…
It is incomprehensible that, in 2024, an artificial intelligence is not capable of contrasting a date. Something a child can do.
The reality is that, due to the way AI works, precisely what he is worst at is looking for precise data…which is what people ask for the most.
Artificial intelligence companies cover their backs by asking users to compare answers. But if the AI fails at simple things and you don’t get it as a result, you have to manually check all the answers… What good is an AI, if you have to do the dirty work?
And if we leave it only for trivial things, then the enormous energy expenditure it requires loses all meaning.
Quiz it’s time for AIs to add an extra layer that checks if the answers are correct. Or that they recognize that These hallucinations are not going to go away.
Precisely, Microsoft today announced a new version of Copilot+ that has voice and eyes, as well as improvements in searches. Let’s hope the new Copilot stop “killing” actors and celebrities so loved by everyonesuch as Ian McKellen, William Shatner, and David Attenborough. We are not up to so many sudden scares!
