    I’ve always assumed many of these are just editting element text, but mobile that seems more effort than worth. Is there a way to quickly confirm them if not using/having access to the feature?

      Assuming AI Overview does not cache results, they would be generated at search-time for each user and “search-event” independently. Even recreating the same prompt would not guarantee a similar AI Overview, so there’s no way to confirm.

        Multiple people in this thread, including myself, have the exact same tiktok meme quote as results for that prompt.

        “AI Overciew” is not the same as randomized image generation.

        Welp, that’s enough for me to assume 80% of these be real lol. Now I feel like I’m missing out, but I don’t think I am.

        Tbh I always assumed these AI search results posts were fake. But I just did the search and got the same weird result from TikTok highlighted at the top.

          This is a different one. The tiktok one is just ripping the text from tiktok, and google has had this feature for yeaaaars. It’s just embedding the content on the page.

          The one from the OP is real too and that’s using this feature called “SearchLabs AI” which is written by AI

        I got exactly the same thing.

        AI has no concept of satire, which in my view is a good thing, as it makes people question just how accurate the information being provided really is.
