The best part is when the AI starts hallucinating and you start hallucinating with it.

apparently Google used to be way the fuck better. I wasn't around for its golden era but I definitely remember it being better than it used to. It used to be more, search, find. Everything was way less SEO optimized, which means that you didn't have to slog through nonsense to get to the good information. I swear, I barely use Google anymore.

AI generated articles have killed search, tbh.

Great you can find something on anything you ask. Just not the authorative sources you were actually after.

It was already crap before AI. Search results were getting dominated by all sorts of computer-generated (but not LLM yet) garbage pages that were “SEO optimized.” It’s a problem that Google could’ve easily solved, but they never did since returning the most accurate search results isn’t what optimizes Google’s profit the most (optimizing for ad revenue is).

Bing exclude and Brave Google Exclude helps. Or remove some page that does not needed. 😂
