My Windows search is pushing the new AI-powered Bing. I gave it a try:
When is the Perth Trail Series Winter series? I asked.
The response was a few web addresses plus the very useful, "It starts on July 31 and ends on October 8".
Pity it's wrong.
My guess is that BingAI has found PTS sites -- from a previous year.
Because my query was prompted by an email pushing the first winter run -- this year -- on 6th August.
I've heard of other dubious AI responses:
... The Eagles with a strong chance to win the Premiership. In which dream year is that?!
... Jock of Masterchef is still alive and well... oops.
An AI search engine is only as good as the data it searches. Have you ever noticed that websites do not mention years? News, for example, is often, "Just 5 hours ago" -- which is fine. Until you realise that it is five hours ago from last year.
AI web search: Not working yet.

Unfortunately AI will get to dominate the web and much more. Hopefully the good points will outway the bad.
