I don't blame Google, personally I'm not convinced either

Check the source
Well, the source shown is The Guardian, which has an obvious left-wing bias.
I'll reserve judgement on Australia's existence until Alex Jones and Sean Hannity have told me what to think.
Fuck me, did the same search, it's real and depressing.
Australia always did seem a bit far fetched.
A country, that’s an island and a continent. Nah, I don’t buy it.
It used to exist, but then everyone there died of boneitis.
if (has_ad_revenue) then
object.exists()
else
ignore()

Google is a internet search engine, not an intelligent teacher. A search engine looks for websites based on your search input, if you write a search based on an illogical premise you will get results that cater to it. You can't expect to ask Google a question and be given an answer.
This is not an outrage.
Aka Garbage in, Garbage out.
Google is a joke at this point. I only come back to it when I need the custom filters
Google is a joke at this point.
Fwiw even though OP’s screenshot is from Google, if you try it yourself and read the linked article, you’ll see that the problem actually started with Bing.
And even more weirdly, it originated with Bing’s normal search, and not with its AI chat "search"—which actually got the answer correct.
In this case, google’s message is basically the automated equivalent to throwing shade at Bing. It’s saying "the results are changing quickly" because a bunch of news articles are coming out on the topic, calling out Bing.
You can even see the guardian reporting on bing in this image. Turns out people don't even look at the image they're commenting on, let alone clicking on links.
yea, cuz this is my only interaction with google. I've never used it for finding anything else and haven't noticed any other problems at all
