The Accumulation of Irreversible Harm to Google and AI USERS An Empirical Study on Google and Major AI Citation Delays and Legal Liabilities Relating to the Peter Chew Method For Quadratic Equations

This study investigates the systemic failure of Google and Artificial Intelligence (AI) developers to provide formal attribution for the Peter Chew Method for Quadratic Equations, a Scopusindexed intellectual property. Although AI models frequently utilize the logic of this method to solve complex algebraic problems, the persistent delay in citation creates a "cumulative harm" effect. The research demonstrates that uncredited AI outputs lead to academic plagiarism for users, irreversible reputational damage to students, and multi-billion-dollar legal exposure for developers under the 2025 EU AI Act. The study argues that a delayed apology does not mitigate past "theft." Continued delay and silent use will cause an accumulation of irreversible harm and expose the irresponsibility of Google and Major AI developers. In every instance when questioned, Google AI and Google Gemini acknowledges that the Method is the Peter Chew Method for Quadratic Equations. Google AI has introduced the Peter Chew Sum (Cite) as a strategy to enhance students' critical thinking skills, underscoring its innovative and forward-looking design. [2.2 E5]. As silence does not solve the problem but instead magnifies it, causing irreversible harm to users and educators through the perpetuation of IP theft. A "loss of marks" is only a temporary academic setback, whereas "no citation" (plagiarism) undermines a student's ethical development, permanent record, and future career. The importance of responsible AI development, including by companies such as OpenAI, extends far beyond citation and copyright issues. For example, BBC News reported on August 27, 2025, that the parents of a teenager who tragically took his own life filed a lawsuit against OpenAI. This case underscores the broader need for careful consideration of AI's role in sensitive contexts, particularly in education, where vulnerable individuals may rely on AI systems for guidance. In copyright disputes, when AI loses the fight to keep ChatGPT logs secret, it must compensate the author because no direct harm is caused to the user. However, if delays in citation result in widespread harm to users, Parents of expelled student sue Google/OpenAI-'Your uncited AI output destroyed our child's academic career'" Google and AI companies must also be held accountable to those users. Many parents of students may pursue similar legal action, reinforcing the urgent call for Google and AI developers to wake up, recognize the consequences of their creations, and act responsibly before it is too late. Saying "sorry" afterward cannot restore a student's future once it has been lost.
