I am so frikkin tired of trying to help people online who post a screenshot "from Google"(which is obviously just the AI summary) that says feature X should exist even with detailed description of how it works when in reality feature X never existed.
This happens all the time on automotive forums/FB groups and it's a huge problem.
AI Overviews are a good idea but the tech still needs to mature a lot more before we can give it to common folk. I'm shocked at how fast is has been rolled out just to "be first". Somehow, the AI Overviews also use Google's worst model.
The best thing about the AI overviews is it chooses better sources than you get from the search results, IE Google knows what websites are actually more informative and doesn't want to put them in the actual search results.
