"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.

I wonder how long before they disable the Web Search option (udm=14). I still use that as my default search engine wherever possible, because I find it more reliable than Duck Duck Go for the things I tend to search for. Unfortunately, I can see Google killing it to funnel more people towards the slop trough.
What’s that do?
It's basically an older version of the website, without the AI features.
so I append ?udm=14 at the end of the URL?
Correct! Like so: https://www.google.com/search?q=wankel+rotary+engine&udm=14
There are also browser extensions that do it automatically.
Thanks!
You're welcome :)
