    It doesn’t matter how fast it is if the answer is wrong, and it does seem to be wrong an awful lot. I will check their citations to see if they back up their output, and many times they do not.

    Jesus should we go back to having to type in the specific web address to find everything !?

    Uh, no? Just use a search engine? You remember those, right?

      AI in Google reminds me of browser ads back in the day, something that became more and more intrusive until I made an effort to block it. I got into a bad habit of reading the AI answer, then having to remind myself that it was just words thrown together using probability which is why it was wrong so often. I tend to search for obscure things that the AI has limited exposure to, and it will make shit up rather than admit it can’t find something.
