I Googled “can X and Y medications be combined” today actually and to my surprise was provided with an AI overview. It took the cautious route and recommended they not be combined, but I’m surprised that AI overviews for this type of thing would be allowed. In the event that someone were incorrectly advised to combine X and Y and died as a result, would it be possible for a lawyer to subpoena the search history of the individual and hold Google liable for giving incorrect medical advice?

Edit: Expanding the thought process here, if the DOJ wanted to could they force Google to release records of instances when such health-related queries were made, and instances where that was the last thing the person had googled since?
