Not sure who is doing this exactly, if it’s DDG or Reddit or someone else. I was looking for a comparison of epic vs steam and noticed that the description of the search result is AI-generated, instead of actually showing anything from the thread.

A user asks why they should buy games on Steam rather than Epic, and gets various answers from other users. Some of the reasons include Steam’s features, performance, community, and exclusivity.

    A user makes a post expressing mild infuriation on a search result with an AI summary, and gets various results from other users. Some users express delight at summaries, others prefer to use their preferred AI interface.

      A user replies to a user who replied to a user, each reflecting on the presence of AI-generated summaries, ultimately creating a self-aware loop of commentary that mirrors the exact summarization style being discussed, much to the amusement and mild existential dread of all involved.
