Google tries to show what the web and web users think is relevant to a search term. Not what is true, neutral, peer-reviewed, curated, balanced, etc.

It'd be interesting to see if Google could come up with a way to use machine learning to do fact finding and remove the web's biases. I strongly suspect such an effort would be seen as more dangerous than just reporting on the web.
