• Mixed Reception and Disappointment:

  Gemini AI received a mixed reception following its debut, with less confidence in Google's technology and integrity due to issues with its demonstration​​.

• Staged Demo Video:

  • Google staged parts of a Gemini AI demo video. Although the video was edited to speed up outputs and claimed to show interactions with the AI, the interactions were non-existent. The demo was made using still image frames and text prompts, rather than real-time responses to voice or changes in objects, raising questions about Gemini's readiness and capabilities​​​​.

• Questionable Capabilities and Interactions

  • The demonstrations of Gemini AI's capabilities in the video, such as recognising hand gestures or reordering sketches of planets, were not genuine. The actual interactions were engineered and heavily hinted, rather than intuitive evaluations capturing abstract ideas on the fly. This discrepancy has led to doubts about the veracity of the AI's capabilities​​​​​​​​.

• Perception of Exaggeration:

  • The video titled "Hands-on with Gemini" suggested that it showed real interactions with the AI, but in reality, these interactions were either more involved, totally different, or did not happen at all. This has led to concerns that Google might be exaggerating the capabilities of its AI models in demonstrations​​.

• Impact on Trust and Competitiveness:

  • The issues surrounding the Gemini AI demo have impacted trust in Google's claims about its AI technology. There is a sense that Google may have damaged its reputation in the AI space and is seen as lagging behind competitors like OpenAI​.

So all the hype that was basically created for Google’s new LLM is really not worth using if you’re a regular user of Chat GPT and instead the model is a decline.

McDonald's AI Integration and Broader Business Impact:

• Marketing Personalisation: AI-driven mobile apps and the use of Dynamic Yield's technology personalise customer experiences, particularly in menu display optimisation.

• Data Security: McDonald's emphasises data protection, addressing challenges in customer data safety.

Influence on Business and Employment:

• McDonald's AI initiatives inspire other businesses to adopt AI for efficiency, competitive advantage, and customer engagement.

• There's a growing need for workforce adaptation and training in response to AI integration.

• AI's impact extends to ethical considerations and data security, setting standards for other companies.
