Cats on the moon? Google’s AI tool is producing misleading responses

Now it comes up with an instant answer generated by artificial intelligence — which may or may not be correct.

“Yes, astronauts have met cats on the moon, played with them, and provided care,” said Google’s newly retooled search engine in response to a query by an Associated Press reporter.
