Google search has become one of our reliable sources on the internet when it comes to looking for information. The search site has been used for many years so people could gather details from a known source. In some cases, other outlets give you answers which are different from the other search engines.
Truly, we have been used to relying on Google to look for a word or an article that we need in our assignments and research. Without our knowledge sometimes, some results produce fake results which could lead to misinformation. In the long run, the ads are used to accompany the individual during the search. Specifically, some of them could be clicked since they are the "near" indicators of the search results that come out.
Through the new update for Google Search, a new notice would appear to correct you from seeing erroneous results from fake sources of data. Over the internet, the information might be endless, but its usage could change a story with a new set of details that are misleading.
Google Search Engine Changes
Google Search will now inform you if the result comes from reliable source or not.
Many of us use Google Search as a dictionary or a staple book of facts and common terms. If we do not know the meaning of a certain word, we could simply utilize it to look for its synonyms. This time, the site would inform you if the website that you are searching yields fake results.
Sometimes, we do not perceive if the source of the information can be trusted. All we know is through a single click of the button, several matches would surface on the internet using artificial intelligence.
Most of the time, AI could not distinguish false from true information. What's bad about the mistakes in the search results is they are also included in the rankings. When this happens, the chance for the appearance of deceitful results will be higher than the usual rate.

Google's Fact-Checking Algorithm
According to Channel News' report on Monday, June 28, Google poses its inability on its judgment over the correct or wrong search results. Usually, when a particular subject is trending, the content of the source would evolve as well. For instance, the details from the "breaking news" source could change from time to time since it is based on ongoing updates.
The accredited Google sources sometimes could not generate enough data for some sites. For that, Google posted a new notice about the "rapidly evolving results" on its blog.
This will make sure that those ranked sources published on the top will be subject to changes from time to time. In addition, this will ensure that the information will come from trusted sources. This year, the company attempted to test it before launching it to the public. The search results are used in the process to identify if there are lapses during the search.
Search Results Will Divert Us From Unreliable Outlets
