@j2bryson @Google @simon @1br0wn @woody This isn't like GenAi where content is generated. Google hasn't been exactly matching by default for a long time now. Including quotes around a sentence usually helps, for me this basically just finds the original video on YT and Instagram: https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=%22Time%20isn%27t%20just%20the%20measure%20of%20moments%20passing%20by%20%2D%20it%27s%20the%20canvas%20where%20we%20paint%20our%20identity%22&sei=d2RpZ7r7B_i0i-gP6L2QoAM
A general purpose search engine is not trying to "attribute" things, in most cases it is helpful for it to return e.g. paraphrases or answers to questions etc.
@j2bryson @Google @simon @1br0wn @woody now I wonder if this is a LinkedIn bug, as I tried the same search without quotes and got a link to a different LinkedIn post by a different person, which does seem to contain the quote https://www.linkedin.com/posts/veroniquebarrot_time-is-the-canvas-on-which-we-paint-our-activity-7178737525203570688-n7VJ?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_android
(LinkedIn often pretends people I know work at a company I'm looking at, but then I click through and it turns out not to be the case).
@spoltier @Google @simon @1br0wn @woody I disagree (and I do have some expertise in this area.)
1) of course, I did start with double quotes [edit: whoops, no I didn't! But 2 & 3 still hold]
2) look at the sentences it claims to have found in the "snippet"
3) look at the actual text.
The preview text on the page of the google search is a full-on hallucination – a reconstruction of the source material along the lines of the prompt.
