AI Led Three to Near Disaster on Mount Shasta | California News
Description
Three hikers thought AI would guide them to the summit of Mount Shasta — but instead, they got lost, injured, and stranded overnight. Relying on Gemini’s advice, they packed insufficient gear for a multi-day trek that turned into a dangerous night descent. After one member hurt his knee and they wandered into Mud Creek Canyon, rangers and volunteers rescued them Monday morning. Officials warn: never trust AI alone for backcountry planning — always check with local rangers and stick to the noon turnaround rule.
