The OPs main complaint was lack of C when that is the temperature scale used in their country

Of course. What else would I think they were complaining about? I also live in a country that uses C. That's why I always stick " C" on the end of temperature queries.

It would be nice if they automatically prioritised those results, but that's a search engine improvement and nobody's working on those any more [1]. A half-arsed AI summary that can't be trusted to get the actual temperature right certainly doesn't solve it.

[1] Except Kagi, and even they're distracted by the AI squirrel.

The point is that the AI just gives you the answer without you having to concern yourself with what measurement system they use in the US.

As I said, it routinely gives incorrect data so it can't be relied on for something that matters, like a safe cooking temperature.

Note that we're talking about the Google AI Summary here, not AI in general. Whatever magical capabilities you think your favoured model has or will soon have, the Google AI Summary is currently utter garbage and routinely spouts nonsense. (Don't try and persuade me otherwise. I have to use Google at work so I see its lies first hand every day.)

I think the point is that the convenience outweighs the accuracy for now! I just look it up with AI then overcook it to be safe.

		What was the point in looking it up then? You know, at "I'd rather overcook my food than click the top result on my search", I think I'm done.
