Google search VP Prabhakar Raghavan is asking employees to teach the company's Bard AI and rewrite answers during internal testing.
In an email to staffers yesterday, the company said the AI chatbot
"learns best by example, so taking the time to rewrite a response
thoughtfully will go a long way in helping us to improve the mode."
- The email included instructions on the "do's and don'ts" of Bard testing.
- For example, it tells employees to keep Bard's responses polite, neutral, non-presumptive, and in the first person.
- Employees
were discouraged from responses that describe Bard "as a person, imply
emotion, or claim to have human-like experiences."
- For Bard's
answers that are hateful, abusive, or offering legal and other advice,
Google told employees to give Bard a thumbs down.
- Also on Wednesday, Google CEO Sundar Pichai asked workers to spend two to four hours delivering feedback on Bard to help improve its accuracy and responses.
