Google's New AI Assistant Duet Shows Promise but Still Struggles with Accuracy
• Duet AI is Google's new AI-powered workplace assistant that can summarize documents, draft reports, and reply to emails • I tested Duet AI and found the summarization feature often "hallucinated" facts and figures not in the original text • Duet AI worked better summarizing smaller bits of text rather than long documents • Features like rephrasing sentences in Docs and drafting basic emails can save workers time • But Duet AI is still glitchy and should not be trusted with important tasks yet
