Google's crappy "AI Overviews" regularly spits out incorrect answers — and now, apparently, it's being entrusted with medical advice. In a self-congratulatory blog post, Google's chief health officer Karen DeSalvo claimed that "recent health-focused advancements on [sic] Gemini models" and "our best-in-class quality and ranking systems" will allow the janky feature to "cover thousands more health topics.

Now, Google is also applying this AI-generated summary feature to health-related searches. In a blog post, Google detailed six new healthcare features. Google revealed a new tool called, The Check Up, which will now cover a much broader range of medical topics beyond common ones like the flu.

Google said it will expand its health-related artificial intelligence summaries in search, part of an effort to improve its influence in the health sector.
