PSA: do not turn off stability control on your 4,500-pound SUV because Google AI says so.
Google rolled out ads in its AI-powered search overviews today, but it doesn’t appear the system is any better at understanding what it’s actually saying. As flagged on Threads, it suggests turning off the forward collision-avoidance feature on the Kia Telluride by disabling electronic stability control, which is a dangerous idea for most drivers. (I did the same search and got a similar AI search summary.)
The AI overview appears to be getting this idea from a caution notice in the Kia EV6 manual, which, well, there’s a reason I asked Google CEO Sundar Pichai if he thought language was the same as intelligence the last time he was on Decoder.
