AI-planned hike leaves three California trekkers stranded

Three inexperienced hikers from Roseville, California, turned to Google Gemini to map out their journey up the 14,179-foot Mount Shasta. The AI failed to accurately estimate the necessary supplies, suggesting an eight-hour trip for a trek that actually lasted 16 hours. After the group lost their way and one member suffered a knee injury, the trio was forced to stay outside overnight until park rangers arrived to assist them.
