Archived version

  • A German regional court has ruled that Google is directly liable for false claims in its AI-generated search overviews.
  • In this case, Google's AI had wrongly linked two publishers to scams and shady business practices.
  • The court treated the AI overviews as Google's own content and rejected Google's argument that users were responsible for fact-checking the results themselves.
