Amazon Prime AI overviews can't even get the basics right

PyWoody Tuesday, January 06, 2026

Frasier is one of my favorite shows of all time. I love the characters, the writing, the acting, the whole kit and kaboodle.

I've been watching it on Prime and it's been driving me insane how drivel and nonsensical their season and episode AI overviews are.

Here is the overview for season eight:

  In the eighth season of Frasier we meet Daphne and Niles post elopement and dealing with Donny suing Daphne. Meanwhile, Frasier reluctantly becomes 'mentor' to station KACL's young new owner, Silicon Valley billionaire Kenny Daly

Niles and Daphne elope in season ten! Kenny Daly is the lovable station manager, not the new owner!

What is going on? Amazon's a billion fucking dollar company. Just pay for IMBD's overviews. Oh, that's right, Amazon owns IMDB because of course they do.

I am so sick and tired of this AI slop infecting everything.
