I honestly don't know if people even care that the search result summaries are completely wrong the majority of the time. Most people I know see an answer given by Google and just believe it. To them that's the value, the accuracy doesn't really matter. I hope it ends up killing Google, but for the majority the shitty summary has replaced even shittier search results. On the surface it's a huge improvement, even if it's just distilled garbage.


there was a joke like 15 years ago

in googlis non est, ergo non est

which sums very well how people are super biased to believe the search results.
