For most queries the AI summary works. If it doesn’t, oh well.

Yesterday I looked up how much a certain car weighs. The AI summary gave me an answer. It may be the wrong one, but I looked it up out of curiosity, so it doesn’t ultimately matter.

Now this has to be the most surprising thing I've read this week, until I thought about it for long.

It doesn't matter if it's correct because you googled it out of curiosity? I think you might be confused. When you're curious, you want the answer to be correct (there's related questions that are raised and consistency checks that a curious person does in their mind.) I think what you are is addicted to the internet. You searched something because that's you brain's kneejerk reaction to whatever the trigger was in this case. The act of searching is what your brain was looking for, not the actual information.

Its accuracy is around 50% for queries I do, which is low enough that I actually consider it a negative to my experience using Google, and has made me think about looking for a different search engine for the first time.
