A None Query Creates Results

I'm working on an AI RAG client that builds an event list from a poster submitted by an app user. I have been exploring an interesting discovery where the AI uncovered a treasure trove of live performances by a little-known local band.



  {
    "title": "Splitsville",
    "description": "Nothing Personal live performance",
    "link": "https://www.howlsplitsville.com",
    "image": null,
    "startDate": "2025-07-05T21:00:00",
    "endDate": "2025-07-06T00:00:00",
    "date": "Saturday, July 5, 2025"
  },
  {
    "title": "Splitsville",
    "description": "Nothing Personal live performance",
    "link": "https://www.howlsplitsville.com",
    "image": null,
    "startDate": "2025-07-12T21:00:00",
    "endDate": "2025-07-13T00:00:00",
    "date": "Saturday, July 12, 2025"
  },
...

It was a fascinating phenomena, because the poster in question was this:

Looking at the image, I can see there's a wooden box or holder mounted on the wall..

The AI somehow hallucinated this to link to the schedule of a local band called Nothing Personal. I was perplexed until I saw the run schedule:

INFO:web.app.aws.geovision.common.rest_google_search:🔎🌐 Query: None in "Providence, Rhode Island" with dates and 8 results

Evaluating to None in detection and then augmenting the data with real-world information has surprising and beneficial effects.
