The image is a split-panel comparison showing a humorous contrast between search results "then" versus "now." On the left side, labeled "...THEN" with the text "SEARCH RESULTS:", there is a single purple box containing the text "THE THING YOU WANT". On the right side, labeled "...NOW" with the text "SEARCH RESULTS:", there is a series of boxes stacked vertically. These boxes contain the following text: "AI NONSENSE.", three boxes labeled "SPONSORED RESULT", a box labeled "PEOPLE ALSO ASK", and a box labeled "VIEW PRODUCTS". Below the "VIEW PRODUCTS" box are four smaller, square boxes with a small icon of a shopping cart in each. The entire image is drawn in a simple, cartoonish style with thin black lines and a minimal color palette of purple, blue, and white. The contrast highlights a perceived shift in search engine results towards more AI-generated content and advertisements.
