Looks like it's learned that adding "according to Quora" makes it look more authoritative. Maybe with a few more weeks of training it'll figure out how to make fake citations of sources that are actually trustworthy.

Just wait until it starts taking stuff from 4chan, twitch, and twitter. Things are going to be come so much more interesting.
Google signing a contract with 4chan for data training is actually so stupid I don't think it'll ever happen.
4chan is almost certainly blacklisted from basically everything AI given the sites content and history of intentionally destroying chatbots/earlier 'AI's.
But at the same time they paid reddit millions to train on "authoritative" posts like that one from "fuckSmith" that suggested to add glue to pizza

As @Karyoplasma@discuss.tchncs.de pointed out, this is an actual answer on Quora so at least it got that right
I think it’s also a way of shifting the blame.
For some reason I don't have AI search on my account, but I still get the same answer:
That's probably a real answer from someone on Quora then
What's the point in having an AI run the search and present the found answer for you, when you just ran the search yourself and gets the AI finding presented?
As this point AI helpers are just a layer that hides the details from the original search. It's useless for this. AI is wonderful for lots of stuff, but this just isn't it. I used to laugh when people used the Google search box to find Google so they could search in Google, but that is exactly what AI is doing for us now.
Plus the insane power consumption for such a marginally useful feature. Especially given that it’s on by default for everyone using google (as I understand)
It’s almost like the feature is not ready but they need to show off to their investors anyway. At the cost of user experience and the environment.
At least with ChatGPT you have to consciously go to their website and use, rather than being the first result of a fucking internet search.

More eyes on your website, means less on other websites, making your adverts more valuable.
And when it doesn’t work, it doesn’t matter, because you run the advertising on the other websites too. Bonus: you can penalise rankings for websites that don’t use your advertising network.

So many fruits in the berrum family, can't believe they even had to google that question...
I love schnozzberrum
"If it's on the internet it must be true" implemented in a billion dollar project.
Not sure what would frighten me more: the fact that this is trainings data or if it was hallucinated
Neither, in this case it's an accurate summary of one of the results, which happens to be a shitpost on Quara. See, LLM search results can work as intended and authoritatively repeat search results with zero critical analysis!
Pretty sure AI will start telling us "You should not believe everything you see on the internet as told by Abraham Lincoln"

Wow they really did it.
They put the um in the coconut and shake it all up
It would appear the coconut is the only one they didn't put the um in though
Have an angry (and admiring) upvote.
There goes my making shit up job.
Now LLMs are even taking the jobs of professional trolls! What's gonna be next? The scambots loosing their jobs to LLMs?!
I'll allow that one because it said "According to Quora" so you knew to ignore it.
AI is just very creative, ok?
Looks like AI is lots and lots of "artificial" and close to nothing in the area of "intelligence".
as real as artificial cheese.
Coconut um!
"AI" has always been like this... It's not sentient or rational... It's not thinking it's just averaging language... It's not really AI, it's a language model.

I for one am enjoying this AI thing at Google. I haven't had that many laughs from just searching for things.
I think the names end with um in Latin.
https://www.wordhippo.com/what-is/the/latin-word-for-d0be2dc421be4fcd0172e5afceea3970e2f3d940.html
Everything ends with um in Latin!
So why does everything end with a vowel n modern Italian?
Hoc casu non est

I love how it just gave up on coconut
CoconutAlways trust user input. Surely the AI will figure it out.
one is unlike the other
"nutted" instead "um"
AI is the vulture
Wow weird. Found one of these that is not a lie
