>Some of these faked results have been obvious and silly. Others have implied that we returned dangerous results for topics like leaving dogs in cars, smoking while pregnant, and depression.

Meanwhile "add glue to your cheese" was a real result, which I guess was not Google "returning a dangerous result" because they specified that the glue should be non-toxic. Not really sure how obvious smoking while pregnant should be after that.

The quoted paragraph describes two distinct and _separate_ group: the "obvious and silly" ones, and the "others [which] implied that we returned dangerous results". Smoking while pregnant is listed among the latter.

Of course, but I would read it differently if the faked screenshots were wildly more absurd what was actually being generated (which in this case, they weren't!)

The fake posts involved things like suggestions to jump off the Golden Gate Bridge and that cockroaches often live in human penises. Those were quite a bit more absurd (and dangerous) than the actual falsities.

Both can be true. But fakes screenshots isn’t relevant to the topic at hand.

So why mention it?
