> Highlighted Answers: When people are researching, they want helpful suggestions. Now, when AI Mode provides a list of recommendations — like the best language apps for an upcoming trip — highly relevant, high-quality ads are eligible to appear on that list as a Highlighted Answer.

The user asked for the "best language apps for an upcoming trip"?

Are you going to answer their question objectively?

What if the correct answer is apps A and B are what they need, yet the publisher of app C paid you to be a Highlighted Answer?

What if C is not only not among the best, but is a toxic load of poo?

Also, when are you going to stop often blatantly plagiarizing things people wrote on the Internet, for your "AI" answer, even though you absolutely know you're violating the social contract that built your company, and destroying the creators from whom you're stealing?
