In today's example of how Google's AI overviews are the worst form of AI-assisted search (previously, hallucinating Encanto 2), it turns out you can type in any made-up phrase you like and tag "meaning" on the end and Google will provide you with an entirely made-up justification for the phrase.
I tried it with "A swan won't prevent a hurricane meaning", a nonsense phrase I came up with just now:
It even throws in a couple of completely unrelated reference links, to make everything look more credible than it actually is.
I think this was first spotted by @writtenbymeaghan on Threads.
