You can no longer Google the word ‘disregard’

你现在无法在谷歌上搜索“disregard”这个词了

Earlier this week, Google rolled out a completely new Search experience, foregrounding AI summaries and kicking the traditional “10 blue links” far down the page. 本周早些时候，谷歌推出了全新的搜索体验，将人工智能摘要置于首位，并将传统的“10个蓝色链接”推到了页面下方。

But the sheer scale of Google Search means there are lots of edge cases that the company doesn’t seem to have considered. For instance, this is what you’ll now get if you type the word “disregard” into Google Search. 但谷歌搜索的庞大规模意味着存在许多公司似乎尚未考虑到的极端情况。例如，如果你现在在谷歌搜索中输入“disregard”一词，就会出现这种情况。

Google has been catching some flack on social media for this, and it’s easy to see why. As you’ll notice, the Merriam-Webster link is still in there, but you have to scroll past a huge block of empty space. For most users, that single reply is the only thing you’ll see. 谷歌因此在社交媒体上受到了一些批评，原因显而易见。你会注意到，韦氏词典（Merriam-Webster）的链接仍然存在，但你必须滚动经过一大片空白区域才能看到它。对于大多数用户来说，那条单一的回复是你唯一能看到的内容。

And crucially, the AI response serves no conceivable value to a user searching the word “disregard.” It’s just a broken tool. 至关重要的是，对于搜索“disregard”一词的用户来说，这个人工智能回复没有任何可想见的价值。它只是一个坏掉的工具。

For context, here is the same search in Bing, which has been less aggressive about its AI summaries. It’s not perfect, but there is some useful information to be found here. 作为对比，这是在必应（Bing）中进行的相同搜索，必应在人工智能摘要方面表现得不那么激进。虽然它并不完美，但你可以在这里找到一些有用的信息。

I have been a professional tech journalist for nearly 15 years, and before today, I cannot think of a single time when a Bing search result was more valuable than the Google equivalent. There really is a first time for everything! 我担任专业科技记者已有近 15 年了，在今天之前，我想不出有哪一次必应的搜索结果比谷歌更有价值。凡事果然都有第一次！
