I just Googled a term I didn’t know, and Google’s AI Overview informed me that the Second Coming of Christ is a tenet of Judaism.

I’m really worried that people are taking Google’s AI Overview at face value.
Here’s an example where I happen to have the background knowledge to tell me how wildly wrong this is. But I don’t have background knowledge about everything, and students have a lot less than I do.

Screenshot of Google AI Overview for a search on the term “the new dispensation.” a few possibilities are outlined, but underlined in red is the following text: “Judaism In Judaism, the term "new dispensation" can refer to the idea that the Second Coming of Christ will occur in two stages. The first stage is a rapture, where the church is taken away, and the second stage is a seven-year period where Israel returns and some prophecies are fulfilled.”
