Gregory's Server@tomjennings @paninid if you search for "austria hungary space" a result showing a fictional description of Austria-Hungary in space is arguably just as accurate as independent factual results about Austria in space and Hungary in spcace. Ymmv.

 @yacc143 @abrokenjester @tomjennings @paninid it's a "featured snippet", an excerpt from a relevant page. Google has had that for years, it's not the same as the new "AI Overview" bullshit. @Ash_Crow @yacc143 @abrokenjester @tomjennings @paninid exactly. This has absolutely nothing to do with AI and all with literacy. Click on the link and check the source. It being hosted on Fandom should give enough clues on itself that it's fictional.  Plesse note that humans get these clues often from subtle things like in which website we find a certain text, potentially even the URL. Or what other links are offered on the page. So in a way the summary might be a perfect example of LLM AI art its best, being used totally wrong. It's a bit like my personal position on computer translations: they are generally not good enough to translate something and hand it out to unsuspecting victims. @abrokenjester @abrokenjester |

The problem is the AI summary on top.
The results below make it more or less clear that they are about a fictional game.
The AI summary is misleading by leaving out any hint that it summarizes fiction.
And that is basically the issue with "AI" summaries. They don't get the context. They are convincing sounding text manipulation without understanding.
(Irrelevant fun fact: we did have a "real" colony in Asia for less than a decade.)
