Comment on Google is experimentally replacing news headlines with AI clickbait nonsense

Google doing this shit without warning or notice will get them in shit water. News portals and reporters are generally not too fond of their articles being completely misrepresented.

it’s not just a matter of misrepresentation. it’s directing traffic away from the websites which are creating the content, and depriving them of every means that they have of monetizing it
