Coming from the very recent experience of mine. Googled the storage specs of a certain E-bike battery — the first ever answer was from AI, and it was not just *wrong*. It was a recipe for disaster — following these instructions you very likely would blow up your battery, burn your house and possibly yourself. Good thing I’ve been working with lithium batteries for a while and know safe procedures of operation. But a lot of people who buy e-bikes don’t. And they *trust* Google. A lot of people go for Google to find out medicine dosages, safety of certain chemicals and procedures, cooking techniques and so on.
What I am basically saying is people can *die* following wrong AI instructions, especially elderly people and kids, who do not take everything you see on the Internet with a grain of salt. Would Google be held responsible for that? If no — why? In my country a person giving such instructions to a kid would face criminal charges, a business would face immediate license termination. Or does the US law think the other way?
