1. Google apologises for inaccuracies in its AI Overview feature

This comes after numerous online criticisms from Google's users.

Liz Reid, Google VP, acknowledged that AI Overviews sometimes misinterprets queries and lacks sufficient information.

Google plans improvements, including better detection for nonsensical queries and limiting user-generated content in certain responses, aiming to refine AI Search's reliability.

2. Paul Graham says Sam wasn’t forced out from YC

Paul Graham, co-founder of Y Combinator, denied claims that Sam Altman was pressured to resign as Y Combinator president in 2019 due to conflicts of interest.

Graham stated Altman chose OpenAI over Y Combinator, contradicting reports alleging Altman was forced out.

This follows recent criticism from former OpenAI board members regarding Altman's trustworthiness amidst profit incentives pressures.
