A user spotted a spelling error in Google's AI Overview, where 'crucifix' was misspelled as 'cruifix'. Since LLMs rarely make spelling errors, the user speculates that the model didn't generate the typo itself but rather extracted the misspelled word directly from a source document containing the error.
