Nah, it’ll be more subtle than that. Just like Brawno is full of the electrolytes plants crave, responses will be full of subtle product and brand references marketers crave. And A/B studies performed at massive scales in real-time on unwitting users and evaluated with other AIs will help them zero in on the most effective way to pepper those in for each personality type it can differentiate.
Google search is literally fucking dogshit and the worst it has EVER been. I’m starting to think fucking duckduckgo (relies on Bing) gives better results at this point.
I have been using Duck for a few years now and I honestly prefer it to Google at this point. I’ll sometimes switch to Google if I don’t find anything on Duck, but that happens once every three or four months, if that.
The one thing Google still has over Duck for me at this point is reddit results. So much niche information is stored on that site, but they’ve blocked anyone other than Google from crawling the site so other engines can’t index past the point they changed that policy.
Isn’t it funny that a lot of people were worried that wikipedia would be unreliable because anyone could edit it, then turned out pretty reliable, but AI is being pushed hard despite being even more unreliable than the worst speculation about wikipedia?
Meanwhile Google search results:
Should we put bets on how long until chatgpt responds to anything with:
Great question, before i give you a response, let me show you this great video for a new product you’ll definitely want to check out!
“Great question, before i give you a response, let me introduce you to raid shadow legends!”
Less than a year.
I say 6 months.
I give him 11 minutes.
And my axe!
Username checks out

I only go to the googs for maps.
Same.

Same here. I only switch to google to search for images for memes. For some reason bing has a harder time finding random star trek scenes.
I don’t like AI in search engines but even duckduckgo’s AI is better lol.
And they let you turn it off
I use ddg but find Google gives better results and Google’s snippet feature still rocks.
I’m in sciences and the AI overview gives wrong answers ALL THE TIME. If students or god forbid professionals rely on it thats bad news.

Being for profit excuses being shitty I guess.
AI is so fucking cap. There is no way to know if the information is accurate. It’s completely unreliable.
Ive been using only duckduck for years now. If I don’t find something there, I dont need it.
We have new feature, use it!
No, its broken and stupid, I prefer old feature.
… Fine!
breaks old feature even harder
yeah, but at least we can vet that shit better that the unsourced and hallucinated drivel provided by ChatGPT
Even adding, “Reddit” after a search only brings up posts from 7 years ago.
