Google’s cleanup
The American tech company told Android Authority that the AI Overview feature provides the same information that is already available on the web. Most of this available information is correct. However, the company has also clarified that necessary steps have been taken to remove any kind of misleading and wrong AI generated content.
strictness of the court
A court in Munich, Germany, showed strictness regarding Google’s AI overview feature and ordered that the American company is responsible for it. In fact, two publishers from Munich have filed a lawsuit against Google, questioning the AI overview feature and complaining about scams, subscription traps and unfair business practices. In their complaint, the publishers said that the results and material shown in the AI overview were wrongly linked.
Questions raised on AI Overview
According to reports, the court’s reasoning prevented Google from availing of the legal protections typically afforded platforms that host third-party content. The judges considered these summaries to be content generated from Google’s systems rather than information obtained directly from third-party websites.
The court said in its decision that Google will have to bear 80 percent of the expenses of this hearing. However, Google can challenge this decision in the higher court. At the same time, if Google is not heard in the higher court, then the discussion on questions arising on AI Overview may intensify. This can affect the entire European market.
