There are currently a lot of fake screenshots since it quickly became a meme, pretty sure this is one.
Still a fuck up in general on their part.
Fair enough. I know how easy it is to fake a Google search with inspect element. I've been trying to verify for myself how shitty it is, but AI Overviews don't seem to be showing up for me (I've done all the correct steps to enable it, but no searches generate results).
The fact that it's hard to tell is pretty damning, for the public perception of SGE if not for its actual capabilities.
