I just entered into Gemini the following prompt: "when was Matt Taibbi accused of inaccuracy in 2010?"

Part of the response:

"In June 2010, Matt Taibbi faced criticism for an article he wrote for Rolling Stone magazine titled "The Great California Water Heist." The article accused conservative donor Charles Koch of having undue influence over California water policy and alleged a connection between Koch and a left-wing activist group called the "Compton Pledge.""

The Gemini response then goes on to list a time line starting in June 2010 when Matt supposedly published the article. This is followed by an article in the L.A. Times questioning the accuracy of Matt's article. Then in July, 2010, Rolling Stone "issues a correction". Also in July, 2010, "Taibbi writes a follow-up article in Rolling Stone, defending his reporting"

I wish Matt would comment in more detail, perhaps in a written post, on this Gemini response Did Matt every write anything related to "water" and "California", the "Koch brothers"? If we go back and look at the June and July 2010 issues of Rolling Stone will we find anything by Matt even remotely related to this "water heist" topic? If the answer to all these questions is "no", then as Walter and Matt said, this Gemini response is truly appalling. If there are fragments of truth in the response, it would be interesting to know what Gemini got right and what it fabricated.
