Odd response from Google Gemini when asked to find recent articles or opinion pieces about CBS News. It keeps responding: "I can't help with CBS yet, but I'm still learning.”
Finally, I asked it to explain what the heck that means and it tells me the cause is "a bit of an automated 'brain fart.’"
"As intended by its investors & owners, AI continues to contaminate the pool of knowledge, like an incontinent child in a swimming pool."
In other words, AI is automated firehosing.

Translated from LLM: Google has built in censorship of CBS. The "explanations" provided by the bot have no connection with reality.
@newsguyusa Sounds weasly.
@newsguyusa
AI self censoring or programmed to censor
