I would go even one step further. For dumb little things like a movie or song you can’t remember, or a factoid to win an argument amongst friends the AI summaries are really helpful.
I actually did use “factoid” correctly here. According to the Cambridge dictionary the Definition is
an interesting piece of information
And that’s exactly what I use it for. I’m not talking about debating economic policy on national television (but tbf, the ai summary probably does a better job than the talking heads haha) but just stupid little things you “”“debate”“” with your friends.
Some examples Ive used it for recently.
“Were the cars in mad max real cars” and heres the response
Yes, the vehicles in the Mad Max films, especially Fury Road, are based on real, modified cars, rather than CGI or camera effects, with over 150 real cars used in the filming of Fury Road.
Here’s a more detailed look
And then it had some details about some of the big cars. And then it linked to articles like this one or this one
Or “how much does a da Vinci (surgery robot) cost?”, and heres it’s answer:
The cost of a da Vinci surgical robot typically ranges from $1.5 million to $2.5 million.
And then had some details of different models of da Vinci machines. But it also linked to this source and this source
And those are just two of the recent searches I have in my search history. For stupid factoids like that it’s really great. For anything more nuanced or complicated than that it falls apart.
And yeah it has incorrect information sometimes. But you know what else gets incorrect information? Me when I drunkenly skim the first article that pops up while my friends drunkenly yell over each other. So id say it washes out.
that’s funny, cus the AI summary for “what is a factoid” told me it’s an incorrectly believed idea. So which is it? Is the AI correct and you’re wrong, or is the AI incorrect and you’re still wrong?
If the AI summary is incorrect, then his point about trusting AI is incorrect. If the AI summary is correct, then it contradicts what he said the definition is and he is once again incorrect. Literally, no matter what, he’s wrong. It’s was a fun way to show the absurdity of blindly trusting AI. His logic itself is flawed.
or a factoid to win an argument amongst friends the AI summaries are really helpful.
People have tried to use these against me already. It’s not helpful because all they get is a mouthful of how shitty and chronically incorrect AI summaries are.

Yeah no. Just had someone IRL try to use the AI summary to prove something that was blatantly false.
Even more fitting: factoid means something believed to be true, but is false. It’s not a “cute little tidbit of info” like you used it as.
So yeah, AI summaries are full of factoids, you are correct.

Google AI: quality you can rely on (when you’re blacked out)
And that’s good enough for me because that’s all I use it for lmao

How 'bout you go check the dictionary? You know, the dictionary that was explicitly cited above.
Whooooosh

I said it’s helpful to win an argument. Not 100% perfectly correct every single time lmfao
If you knew when it was and was not correct then you wouldn’t need it in the first place.
