Google says it is manually removing wrong AI overview answers: Report

Google recently unveiled AI Overviews, a new feature for Search that offers Gemini-powered overviews of topics you are searching for. However, many users flagged issues saying they are seeing bizarre, false and unrelated AI-generated advice on Overviews like using non-toxic glue to stick cheese to pizza, plagiarizing text from blogs, and claiming that pythons are mammals.

Now, in an emailed statement to The Verge, Google spokesperson Meghann Farnsworth has confirmed that the tech giant is “taking swift action” to remove AI Overviews for some queries “and using these examples to develop broader improvements to our systems, some of which have already started to roll out.”
