    AI overviews pulling in through RAGs old gov pages that are there for archiving and poserity, wreaking havoc. DoE advises to “design w/ the expectation that much of what we publish will be [..] atomized, summarized or reinterpreted by systems we don't control”

      @mikarv

      Say it with me: legal penalties for 'AI' systems that provide misleading summaries.

        @mikarv next they'll be taking down "old" archives to protect the "AI" bubble corporations and their billionaire investors...

        ... "in the interests of accuracy".

          @mikarv More than fifteen years ago, I was creating a slide deck and getting mentoring from senior leaders. I was told I needed to change how I said things because the slide deck would be passed around through many different departments and someone would be sure to take something out of context and apply it incorrectly (and attribute it to me).

          I am sad this problem has metastasized.
