@Skitzzo shared a photo of a search he did on Google with me on Twitter showing just how vulnerable Google’s Knowledge Graph is.

A search for the [St Louis Cardinals] yesterday afternoon brought up information in Google’s Knowledge Graph sourced from Wikipedia. But Google indexed the Wikipedia content during the short period that the content was vandalized. For a few hours last night, Google showed the vandalized text while social media was sharing and mocking Google’s search results.

Here is a picture:

This shows how potentially weak the knowledge graph can be. Especially during seasonal topic times, such as the World Series. A Boston Red Sox fan needed a computer and good timing to pull this off.

We know the knowledge graph is far from perfect. We’ve seen nude images, wrong marriages, and wrong pictures to name a few in the past. Here is one more to lighten up your day.
