But what about when you start wanting to know about life's mysteries?

Google isn't staffed by geologists; how are they to know what number of rocks you should eat each day?

Google search itself doesn't have a functioning set of human organs; without AI how would they know how much urine to drink for kidney stones?

Without AI it might've taken another century before we got spicy gasoline pasta recipe, and you think that isn't a problem?

And it works! I followed that recipe in the 80s, to hilariously non-fatal results.
