It's just an optimisation algorithm that's learned certain words have different probabilities of occurring depending on context.

Reminds me of an article I read a few years ago about an Israeli start up aiming to use AI to analyse images of people and detect what they are likely to work with. Doctor, teacher, terrorist, etc.
Basically phrenology. They were making a digital racist uncle.

Google users can now make plans through a new Maps update that will generate events and activities by typing “things to do” into the search bar.
Activities like art exhibitions or lists providing inspiration for things to do will now populate, giving photo-first results to users, according to a Google news release Thursday.
Google Maps uses artificial intelligence to analyze billions of photos shared by the app’s community and focuses on specific activities.

After ChatGPT launched in November of last year, Google strove to catch up with the release of its chatbot Bard, alongside other AI endeavors across the company.
