And what I got was a pretty comprehensive cocoa AI overview of how to do this.
And as I was reading through, I didn't I didn't actually go through with it because I don't have a turkey on me right now.
But I did see how this would absolutely collapse traffic to food bloggers, because previously, if you kept scrolling down, you would see links to food blogs on how exactly to do this.
In years past, that's probably where I would have gone, but now there's the AI overview.
They say they put links and references in their AI overview, Google says this, but you have to look closely.
There's really small icon links, and you have to squint to see them, and then you click on them, and then it opens up a new tab where you can see where they got this information from.
It's from a few different food blogs like The Kitchen and a few other ones, but I can totally see just...
myself firsthand, how this is absolutely hiving away traffic from food bloggers who are facing really an existential crisis right now with AI overviews scraping their content and then putting it above their food blogs in Google search results.
Yeah.
So would you trust an AI overview recipe?
One thing to know that I saw with this dry browning example is what these food bloggers called Frankenstein AI recipes.
And that's why they may not work.
It's because they are borrowing from a bunch of different or
borrowing, I should say stealing from a bunch of different food blog recipes and they're combining together and they don't really know the difference.
So they might take one ingredient list from one blog and then another instruction manual from another recipe, put them together as if they were the same thing originally.
And so that when you make it, you're, you look at this and you're like, I just created a monster of a dish and this doesn't taste good at all.
So I think for maybe some recipes, very simple things like what,
temperature should I cook turkey to?
You can probably rely on AI overviews.
When it comes to something a little more comprehensive, I would certainly be skeptical.
