Gregory's Server@pa27 well it seems that there is some LLM shenanigans going on in the search results as well:

@pa27 You may joke, but I've been using pretty much only books for my writing research, because finding the same information online hasn't worked out well at all. The information is either not there, or buried in too much trash, and this was the case even before AI. The idea of using search engines for *factual answers* is wild to me. Yet the sort of things they'd be best for finding - personal sites, blogs, art, etc - are also the things they really don't like to show people. |
@rysiek Hmm.. Well that's crappy then. Having said that, I just tried a quick search and can't reproduce that result. Maybe different search terms. All the search engines are getting crappy one way or another. Back to books maybe!!!
