AI is causing water shortages, rising electric costs and chip shortages. AI is just a fancy search engine, that can be a useful tool. It was awesome for ai to read my blood test results but I don't need it for most things, a waste of energy. Search engines should have an off button for ai, turn the lights off when we're not using it.
Google search used to be able to find answers in the old days.
The sad truth is that today traditional search engines have been run into the ground by SEO, and some how chatbots backed by LLMs are producing what Google used to call the "I'm feeling Lucky" button. It used to just automatically take you to the first result for your query which was usually what you wanted.
Its not just SEO, they intentionally made Search worse.
Techbros won't let that happen, because they're all terrified that consumers will just shut off all the AI being crammed into everything and all their money will evaporate.
I totally understand the challenges with infrastructure that need solving, but that doesn’t mean AI is useless or that it’ll never be better than it is now.
Frankly, the “AI slop” crusade isn’t working. It’s time to choose a new fighter.
