AI has failed so many times it has joined the junkpile of online personalities that are so bad we can no longer tell the difference between their actual errors and those created as sarcasm.
The Dead Sarcasm Cult.
Comment on My mom's doctor be like
SSUPII@sopuli.xyz 4 months agoNope, this was real.
Google’s new search AI did many errors at release. This can be found online and include but not limited to:
- It’s normal for cockroaches to live in someone’s penis
- You should mix some glue while preparing a pizza
- Overcoming depression is done by jumping off the Golden State Bridge
- You should eat one small rock daily
This was fixed manually per search topic that got viral, but they probably changed its configuration by now to trust reddit amd 4chan comments less.

The jumping off a bridge one is especially egregious. Searching things like that usually give you the phone number for the suicide hotline, but Google decided they have to show their stupid AI before anything else.

The glue one was proven to be just a troll comment on Reddit from 12 years ago, and it fact some more were found to be just basing itsself on Reddit. Fine in theory, but did absolutely no proof check with other sources and so just took trolls as facts.

Source? Some of these were real, but there’s also a ton of fake bullshit floating around.
