Google AI's Nonsense: Seriously Wrong Answers

Google's AI Overview feature provides definitions and origins for any made-up phrase, even nonsensical ones. It uses a probabilistic model, predicting the next most likely word based on its training data, generating seemingly plausible explanations. However, this approach ignores semantic correctness and may cater to user expectations, leading to seemingly reasonable explanations for meaningless phrases. This highlights the limitations of generative AI in handling uncommon knowledge and minority perspectives, and its tendency to 'please' the user.
