AI chatbots put millions of words together for users, but their offerings are usually useful, amusing, or harmless. This week, Google’s Gemini had some scary stuff to say.

"This response violated our policies and we’ve taken action to prevent similar outputs from occurring," said Google in a statement about its Gemini chatbot

In an online conversation about aging adults, Google's Gemini AI chatbot responded with a threatening message, telling the user to "please die."

Gemini AI, Google’s chatbot went off the rails and charged at a user before telling them to “please die,” violating its own policies. This particular user was having a conversation with the chatbot about elderly care when the chatbot lost it and charged the user.

Google's glitchy Gemini chatbot is back at it again, folks — and this time, it's going for the jugular. In a now-viral exchange that's backed up by exported chat logs, a seemingly fed-up Gemini begs a user to "please die" after they repeatedly asked the chatbot to solve their homework for them.
