Google's AI Chatbot, Bard, was unable to answer answer simple questions about the Middle East like 'What is the capital of Israel?' and 'What is Hamas?'
The U.S. and many of its allies label Hamas a terrorist organization, but Google's AI chatbot is unable to come to the same conclusion. Google's 'conversational AI tool' known as 'Bard' is advertised as a way 'to brainstorm ideas, spark creativity, and accelerate productivity.' Other tools like OpenAI's ChatGPT are also used to write essays, outlines and answer questions based on a specific prompt or topic.
When asked, 'What is the capital of Israel?,' Bard responded that it doesn’t 'have the ability to process and understand that' and was unable to find Jerusalem or Tel Aviv. It was, in contrast, able to identify the capitals of Israel's four neighboring countries, Lebanon, Egypt, Syria and Jordan.
