Three hikers used Google’s AI, Gemini, to plan a Mount Shasta climb — and got seriously screwed when the AI told them to pack way too little food and water. Starting at 3 AM, they didn’t reach the summit until 7 PM, defying the noon-turn-back rule. Trying to descend in the dark, they got lost and spent the night stranded in Mud Creek Canyon. Luckily, Forest Service rangers rescued them the next morning. The sheriff’s office warns: don’t trust AI alone for wilderness trips — always verify with local rangers. Tech can’t replace common sense when your life’s on the line.
