    It&#x27;s a whole meme category to make the AI overview help with absurd scenarios: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;knowyourmeme.com&#x2F;memes&#x2F;where-is-mama-ai-overviews" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;knowyourmeme.com&#x2F;memes&#x2F;where-is-mama-ai-overviews

      I think these sort of things are actually very &quot;googley&quot; in the old kinda wacky way. It&#x27;s funny, it&#x27;s goofy. I like the fact it plays along.

      What would you rather it said?

        I really agree with this sentiment, I feel as though we&#x27;ve gotten bogged down in this terrible Institutional Seriousism, like this thinking that if things are big or things matter then they have to put on a grim face, and I think that just isn&#x27;t true.
