| for Google AI Overview (not sure which Gemini model is used for it, must be something smaller than regular model), looks like search/RAG helps it get it right - since it relies on LinkedIn and Hacker News (!) posts to respond correctly... as of Feb 16, 2026: ==== Drive the car.

Washing a car usually requires, well, the car to be at the wash. Walking 50 meters—about half a New York City block—is great for your step count, but it won't get your vehicle any cleaner!
