I have a couple of questions for everybody and my first question is for Mr. Meade. Concern has been expressed in the US about AI Overviews. Much of what I have read shows that the latter gives results that can be seen as misleading, such as adding glue to a pizza to keep the cheese on it. More seriously, it returns results which state that serial killers and nuclear war have benefits. This is misleading and deeply unhelpful. Does Google intend to launch this product here? Are there any concerns about this misinformation?
