  • VPN tests from Taiwan, Russia, France and Switzerland returned Biden as the 2020 winner; Google's standalone Gemini app answered correctly everywhere.
  • Google blamed a 'technical gap,' said 2022 Senate races had the same issue, and said it had fixed the behavior by Thursday morning.

  • OpenAI said in May 2026 it will embed SynthID in all ChatGPT-generated images, joining Nvidia and other adopters.
