A campaign that was intended to inspire children and encourage them to pursue their dreams has turned out to be one of Google&#8217;s worst campaigns in the eyes of consumers.<\/p>\n<p>The piece shows us how a father tells us the story of his little daughter, who, like him, loves to run a lot. As she has grown older, she has chosen other role models to follow in her athletics career, the hurdles and relay specialist <strong>Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone<\/strong>. As a good inspiration, the little girl will follow and admire her in all her training sessions.<\/p>\n<p>The controversy comes when this father asks <strong>Gemini,<\/strong> Google&#8217;s artificial intelligence, for help to write a letter to the athlete. And many have asked: Couldn&#8217;t the girl write this letter? It is a very beautiful effort on the part of the girl to gather the courage to write to the athlete she idolizes and that her father helped her achieve this goal and that the letter reaches Sydney.<\/p>\n<p>An unfortunate campaign that starts from a good premise but ends up going off the rails to tell the benefits of Gemini, Google&#8217;s artificial intelligence.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Watch<\/strong>\u00a0| <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/NgtHJKn0Mck?si=rKGsKKhPLFs2Zj0c\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">YouTube<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Google&#8217;s advert for the Olympic Games has sparked controversy over its use of artificial intelligence.
