Google still limits how Gemini answers political questions


Google's AI-powered Gemini appears to be struggling with certain politically sensitive topics, according to TechCrunch's testing.

Last year’s major elections have come and gone, yet the company hasn’t publicly announced plans to change how Gemini treats particular political topics. In one instance during TechCrunch’s tests, Gemini referred to Donald J. Trump as the “former president” and then declined to answer a clarifying follow-up question.
