Former US president Donald Trump has lashed out at Google over reports that was censoring news and photos of the Republican presidential candidate.
"Google has been very bad. They've been very irresponsible and I have a feeling that Google is going to be close to shut down because I don't think Congress is going to take it. I really don't think so. Google has to be careful," Trump told Fox News in an interview.
Early this week, Trump alleged that it was virtually impossible to find pictures or anything about the failed assassination bid on him on July 13 on Google. Google, however, denied those allegations.
바카라Over the past few days, some people on X have posted claims that search is 바카라censoring바카라 or 바카라banning바카라 particular terms. That바카라s not happening, and we want to set the record straight. The posts relate to our Autocomplete feature, which predicts queries to save you time. Autocomplete,바카라 it said in a social media post.
Google said autocomplete wasn바카라t providing predictions for queries about the assassination attempt against former President Trump. That바카라s because it has built-in protections related to political violence 바카라 and those systems were out of date. After the horrific events in Butler, Pennsylvania, those predicted queries should have appeared but didn바카라t, it said.
바카라Once the issue was flagged, we started working on improvements, and they바카라re already rolling out,바카라 it said.
바카라Secondly, people posted about how Autocomplete wasn바카라t showing relevant predictions for 바카라President Donald바카라. This particular issue was a bug that spanned the political spectrum, also affecting queries for several past presidents, such as former President Obama, as you can see in the attached image. Typing 바카라vice president k바카라 was also showing no predictions. We바카라ve made an update that has improved these predictions across the board,바카라 it said.
Some people, it said, also posted that searches for 바카라Donald Trump바카라 returned news stories related to 바카라Kamala Harris.바카라 These labels are automatically generated based on related news topics, and they change over time.
바카라They span the political spectrum as well: For example, a search for 바카라Kamala Harris바카라 showed Top Stories labelled with 바카라Donald Trump바카라, because many articles cover the two of them together. You can see this happening across a range of topics, like the Olympics, other public figures, companies, and more. Our goal is to help people get relevant results for their query,바카라 Google said.
Overall, these types of prediction and labelling systems are algorithmic, it said.
바카라While our systems work very well most of the time, you can find predictions that may be unexpected or imperfect, and bugs will occur. Many platforms, including the one we바카라re posting on now, will show strange or incomplete predictions at various times. For our part, when issues come up, we will make improvements so you can find what you바카라re looking for, quickly and easily. We appreciate the feedback,바카라 it explained.
