Good. Back when they first added the AI overview, a Super Metroid romhack called "Super Metroid But I Hate You" was released and I wanted to watch a speedrunner's vod of them playing it, so I googled "Super Metroid But I Hate You [speedrunner name]".

The AI overview replied with a 3 paragraph rant about how I must hate that speedrunner because I am a filthy casual incapable of appreciating skillful gameplay angery
