Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

I mean I kind of see your point but calling those results AI is not accurate unless you're just calling any kind of data collation/wrangling or even just basic programming logic "AI". What Google is doing is taking the number of times a game is mentioned in the pages that are in the gaming category and trying to spoon feed you what it thinks you want. But that isn't AI. the point of the person you were replying to is that it wasn't as if he had intended to perform a Google search and was misled, you have to go to Google bard or chatgpt or whatever and prompt it, meaning it's on you if you're a professional who's going to cite unverified word salad. The YouTube stuff is pretty obvious, it's a part of their platform. What was done has nothing to do with web searches.
