The unwanted effect of AI overviews, in my experience, is turning their users into very-confidently-wrong arguers of everything.

The upside is that telling said users to double-check the sources usually results in them realizing the AI overview was wrong, but it's still a waste of everyone's time.

The 2021-era of of just "Not finding the results" was maybe a better outcome.

The difference is today it's mostly correct. I don't see hallucinations like a few years ago with AI generally, they know to use grounded search.
