Google<\/a> apologized Tuesday for sending out an \u201coffensive notification\u201d about the recent BAFTA Film Awards controversy, which included the use of the N-word.<\/p>\nThe inclusion of the slur in the message, which Google confirmed to Variety was received by a \u201conly a very small subset\u201d of app users who receive push notifications, was not due to a system error involving AI, as has been incorrectly reported. According to Google, the system\u2019s safety filters did not correctly trigger when it \u201crecognized a euphemism for an offensive term on several web pages, and accidentally applied the offensive term to the notification text.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
