"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Well yeah, because AI will significantly disrupt or kill the old search. It’s a shame they felt the need to triple-down on all the gross moneymakers, and their AI efforts are terrible, but since AI stole everyone’s work and put it into a mega-set that cross-indexes at light speed, the traditional web search is likely to fade.
It’s also partly due to the pop-ups, time-extender tricks, and garbage design of a lot of sites. Clicking one search result after another, scrolling, not finding what is being searched for is not as necessary for boring things.
