The issue isn't that Google is using an excavator but that Google is using an excavator to build their store building (AI mode) on our property (content) and claim everything as their own.

Google AI Overviews will give you an answer even if what you’re searching for is the meaning of a made up idiom. They are killing thousands of websites for this crap.
A quote from the Futurism article that states “on top of spewing false information, Google’s AI Overviews is undermining the business model of countless of websites that host trustworthy info.”

I have to say I am really impressed by Claude 3.7 Sonnet. "Create a website in the style of the 'Still Alive' from at the end of Portal during the credits." didn't even take a minute to create a nice page which even could play music. Sure this isn't advanced programming but still very impressive.

Don't mention Trump or Musk as disinformation spreaders -was apparently a Grok system prompt that was exposed in its "thought process" output. A few people on Reddit claim to be able to reproduce this:

Did you know that you can temporarily logout in Google Search using a GET-parameter? A lot of people know that adding &pws=0 to the url disables some personalization features but far fewer people know that adding &igu=1 makes search ignoring the current user login. That way you can…

Unlike the drawn out process of the presidential election in 2020, this year’s election quickly revealed that Donald Trump won.

Ideas on AIOs/FS: The initial query gets expanded (synonyms etc), filters remove spam & dc, results get ranked, rankings get reduced to only top hits. Afterwards embeddings are compared and the best match will be used. The best match doesn't need to be in the top10, it does need to match the query.

Looks to me like Google is rolling out the new follow feature to everyone (testes it with 2 accounts). I did some testing and you can follow: - sites/feeds (but only english shown right now) - searches (last entry in the screenshot) - topics/entities (second to last)
