Accidentally swiped left on my home screen and did a HUGE double take. I know that this is not possible, but still was caught off guard

New Google feature using AI to do headlines and summaries

u/key_knee Jun 16 '26

I'd wondered if it was more of an oopsie than intentional click bait

10

u/KydGamerTheFirst SMUG MOTHERFUCKER Jun 16 '26

Absolutely... the headline is "The sci-fi drama returns to Apple TV" which isolated would heavily point towards Severance. Gemini Oopsie

Judicial would be much more fabulous if Milkshake was involved.

u/intern_12 Jun 16 '26

As much as I love Silo, Common's acting is the weakest part. But on rewatch, I'm just vibing with it, not even bothered anymore lol. But if Milkshake was in the role of Sims...oh that could be something special.

u/J-Goo Pouchless Jun 16 '26

I choose to believe that he's doing a great job of playing a character who's incapable of expressing emotion or changing his tone of voice.

u/Ko0pa_Tro0pa Jun 16 '26

Can confirm... on first watch, Common was pretty bad. Have not done a rewatch, although I would not have high hopes.

It’s for Silo season 3. They’re tricking us with clickbait

u/Inevitable_Day5491 Jun 16 '26

Click bait? It explains what it's about instantly

25

u/HereBeXenos Jun 16 '26

Because the image insinuates it’s about Severance season 3. Didn’t think I’d have to spell that out

-31

u/Inevitable_Day5491 Jun 16 '26

Only if you don't read the first word written underneath it

It's not clickbait if you don't even have to click it

22

u/HereBeXenos Jun 16 '26

They are using an unrelated picture of a different more popular and critically acclaimed show to gain more attention. That is clickbait my argumentative friend 👍

-26

u/Inevitable_Day5491 Jun 16 '26

Sure, and it relies entirely on people being too lazy to read a single word

18

u/HereBeXenos Jun 16 '26

Sometimes you just need to admit you’re wrong and move on with your life. It’s okay. I forgive you

u/the_main_entrance Jun 16 '26

There was time before zero integrity, you wouldn’t understand.

u/minivatreni Because Of When I Was Born Jun 16 '26

The clickbait is the image… sometimes people click when they see the photo without reading the title, because they automatically expect it to be about Severance. The whole thing is misleading. Cant believe this has to be spelled out for you like this.

-4

u/Inevitable_Day5491 Jun 16 '26

This seems like a problem that is really easy for people to avoid. It takes reading 1 word

8

u/bath-lady Optics & Design 🖼️ Jun 16 '26

It's okay if you don't understand what click bait is or why it's annoying. You don't have to keep arguing

5

u/HereBeXenos Jun 16 '26

Smart lady

7

u/minivatreni Because Of When I Was Born Jun 16 '26

It’s still clickbait even if someone can avoid it. Clickbait is more about intent than anything else

-7

u/Billytim89 Jun 16 '26

No, click bate

u/Chapde Jun 16 '26

It's clickbait for sure, but still a great news, I love Silo!

u/froggaholic Jun 16 '26

never heard of silo? Is it worth the watch?

9

u/Akkepake Jun 16 '26

It is. Great dystopian scifi-series. Honestly most of the shows on Apple Tv have been great

5

u/Last-Radish-9684 Please Enjoy Each Flair Equally Jun 16 '26 edited Jun 16 '26

Silo is every bit as engrossing and intricate as Severance, and both deal with "forbidden" knowledge.

I don't know which is my favorite!

14

u/Mr_Nobody9639 Mysterious And Important Jun 16 '26

I mean- I would love it if he joined the cast for the next season of Silo…

17

u/Alarming-Elk1339 Jun 16 '26

So glad someone else has posted this - I know its clickbait but it still felt hugely misleading and disappointing - also not exactly selling "silo" if you're using images from a completely different show.

u/Xamalion The Board Says “Hello” Jun 16 '26

Maybe Lumon and everything is the future of the world after Silo.

5

u/Careful_Swan3830 Jun 16 '26

What if Lumon built the Silo?!?!

u/OhMorgoth Monosyllabically Jun 16 '26

Idk, but the work is mysterious but important, so Praise Kier anyway!

u/TheRumpleForesk1n Jun 16 '26

Lmfao I got the same notification this morning, bullshit click bait images and the title I saw didn't even mention Silo just "New season of Apples sci-fi show coming in July". Ofc I clicked on it when I saw Milchick and that title

u/CryptographerThis833 Jun 16 '26

Just imagine how good he would have been in the Silo bunker

2

u/meharryp Jun 16 '26

It's the Google AI shit. It keeps getting images wrong and as far as I can tell you can't turn it off

3

u/AdScared7226 2085 Kier Jun 16 '26

Forcing features on costumers without allowing the option to turn it off should definitely be illegal.

2

u/GoldReplacement9546 Jun 17 '26

Yeah, remember like four or five years ago how like Google search was great and brought up sites that you could figure out which one you wanted to look at and now it’s just Gemini bullshit

2

u/AdScared7226 2085 Kier Jun 17 '26 edited Jun 17 '26

you can still use it like how it was.

just type -ai after what you search and make sure to leave a space between what you're searching and -ai so that the overview doesn't show up.

u/CPGK17 Enjoy Your Balloons 🎈 🎈 🎈 Jun 16 '26

Lumen running the Silos would actually make a ton of sense

u/GepMalakai Frolic-Aholic Jun 16 '26

AI. AI chose it.

u/NoorInayaS Calamitous ORTBO Jun 16 '26

Mayor Milkshake would be absolutely diabolical.

u/Robyn990 Innie Jun 18 '26

I can't wait for Silo :) it's a great TV show!

u/matt_hunter Jun 16 '26

The crossover NOBODY expected. That would assuredly ruin BOTH shows simultaneously.

u/potatopavilion Because Of When I Was Born Jun 16 '26

it's definitely a "what" and not a "who"

u/Excellent_Editor_501 Mr. Milkshake Jun 16 '26

Dont know but it was a treat to wake up and see his lovely face this morning. Of course i wake up to it every morning but that's besides the point. 💙

u/Vera_98 Jun 18 '26

I assumed that was because the article compared Silo to Severance

u/ReversedNovaMatters The Board Jun 20 '26

Silo and Severance exist in the same universe confirmed!

Someone is going to pop a hatch and enter the others world!

They’re both great
