... Huh? Any source for this outlandish claim? Asking because I've been an engineer who facilitates cell tower backhaul for mobile and private cell towers and that sounds outrageously false. You do have to certify that the channels/bands are in spec and that they don't exceed certain power limits with the FCC but that's simply because they're the regulatory body and certainly doesn't mean the government gets free services

I mean I kind of see your point but calling those results AI is not accurate unless you're just calling any kind of data collation/wrangling or even just basic programming logic "AI". What Google is doing is taking the number of times a game is mentioned in the pages that are in the gaming category and trying to spoon feed you what it thinks you want. But that isn't AI. the point of the person you were replying to is that it wasn't as if he had intended to perform a Google search and was misled, you have to go to Google bard or chatgpt or whatever and prompt it, meaning it's on you if you're a professional who's going to cite unverified word salad. The YouTube stuff is pretty obvious, it's a part of their platform. What was done has nothing to do with web searches.

Just because you wrote about a topic doesn't mean you're suddenly the authority figure lol.

My only problem with it is that it's always on the homepage under recommended, despite the fact I've never watched any streams like that. Even if I tell the site "not interested" it still shows the content. I only get on twitch to watch content for one game and from a small number of creators.

You quoted half of the sentence. I think there's enough substance on there to consider that an informed opinion.
