CEO of Google Says It Has No Solution for Its AI Providing Wildly Incorrect Information

You know how Google's new feature called AI Overviews is prone to spitting out wildly incorrect answers to search queries? In one instance, AI Overviews told a user to use glue on pizza to make sure the cheese won't slide off (pssst...please don't do this.)
Well, according to an interview at The Vergewith Google CEO Sundar Pichai published earlier this week, just before criticism of the outputs really took off, these "hallucinations" are an "inherent feature" of AI large language models (LLM), which is what drives AI Overviews, and this feature "is still an unsolved problem."

There are really only 3 search providers, Google, Bing, and Yandex.
All others will pay one of these three to use their indexes, since creating and maintaining that index is incredibly expensive.
Baidu?
Baidu, please tell me about the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests and massacre.
Surprisingly the second result talks about it... As a refutation of the us state department... But it's still there.
Results might be very different if you are inside china, or write in Chinese characters.
This raises the question why AI isn't using the Google index.
