Google AI Overview labels game a 'survival game' then corrects itself in the same answer

A Reddit user shares a screenshot of Google's AI Overview for the game Eternal Threads: it labels the game "Survival game" at the top, then immediately states "Eternal Threads is NOT a survival game, but rather a first-person, story-driven puzzle and time-manipulation adventure game" by Cosmonaut Studios. The poster complains nearly every AI Overview they see is wrong and self-corrects, questioning the value of placing unreliable answers atop every search.
