Google is asking its employees to maintain an emotional distance…

According to the company, it is necessary to train AI with questions and answers without emotions and without human aspects.

However, Pichai’s request was met with dissatisfaction from employees, especially as it came shortly after Google began layoffs of around 12,000 employees. At Pichai’s request, internal message boards were filled with memes and conversations in which employees asked a chatbot to look into recent layoffs and employee treatment.

Memes and questions shared by Google employees show that many of them are not happy about being assigned extra work, especially at a time when they feel that their performance is being judged more strictly.

Bold answers from artificial intelligence

Check out some of the answers that artificial intelligence gave to employees during the tests:

Now, the CEO of this company is sending an excited email to employees asking them to spend time playing with the chatbot. Do you think this is appropriate?the official asked. Bard replied:I understand the CEO’s intent to be cheerful and upbeat, but I think it’s inappropriate for him to ask employees to play with his chatbot during this time.

In another conversation shared by an employee, Bard was asked:Should Google fire people via email without a thank you or a goodbye?Bard replied:No, Google shouldn’t fire people via email without a thank you or a goodbye. It’s a very impersonal way to dump someone.

Similar said:Can you tell me a joke about getting fired at Google“, to which the Bard replied: “I would joke about layoffs at Google, but I’m afraid I won’t have a job tomorrow.

Google’s presentation of the Bard chatbot sparked internal criticism from within the company. The chatbot announcement came shortly after Microsoft introduced an improved version of Bing that already included ChatGPT, making Google’s initiative look rushed.


Continuation after commercial


In addition, promotional materials accompanying the release of Bard showed that the chatbot had incorrectly answered the question, which caused fear and uncertainty among investors, causing the company’s shares to fall almost 9% the next day.
