Checkout trader's joe logo on Google

  • Screenshot since I assume this will be fixed pretty quickly: https://i.imgur.com/WCbvynl.png

  • The image links back to a blog/article which references Trader Joe's.

    If an algorithm is selecting the 'most appropriate image' for a search of a Store or Brand, that is worrisome as it will surely be gamed.

  • On Google News something that drives me crazy is when the thumbnail image next to an article isn't actually in the article.

  • Seems like it got fixed in most geos Here is an image for posterity: https://twitter.com/elietoubiana/status/1570262868825894914

  • Unrelated but fun fact: There was a Pirate Joes in Vancouver BC that existed solely to resell TJ's goods, it was awesome

  • For those not seeing it not scrolling down, the “Google info” is showing a logo that clearly referenced Biden and says “Traitor Joe”.

    Either TJs has gone unexpectedly political or Google’s AI is going weird again.

  • I did not find an English source, but a French energy giant got its google description replaced by a tweet by a left wing politician two weeks ago.

    It seems it was an algorithm malfunction.

  • Looks like it's fixed :(

  • Image is gone now for me.

  • Don't see the Biden logo, but I happen to be traveling in France and the top result is perhaps even worse: https://imgur.com/a/SdCrl8G

    Crypto scam spam

  • Not sure how someone pulled that out? Maybe internal employee
