Soooooooooo I got this email.
Apparently I'm a top local guide! (This is mostly because I take pictures, grumble about entrance and accessibility data being incorrect, and once added an important toll booth to the map.)

Early access: Help shape the future of Google Maps
Azure, as a top Local Guide, you have been selected to be the first to try our new generative AI experiment in Maps!
Say you’re looking for date night inspiration. Or rain changes your plans and you need alternatives nearby…quick. Google Maps now combines the power of AI with insights from contributors (like you!) to make it easier to discover places to go.
Give it a try:
1. Tap the search bar in the latest version of the Google Maps app
2. Select “Search with generative AI”
3. Try a couple searches, explore the suggestions, and ask follow-ups
4. Share feedback by tapping or at the bottom of each response
We'll reach out again in a couple weeks to hear more about what you think of the experiment. We're excited to have you join us in shaping what’s next for Google Maps.
Try it


So far, I've thought about combining multiple niche accessibility needs in my searches, and screening results for reviews that say it explicitly does NOT meet those needs.
What else should I be asking this thing?
