I admit, I'm tempted to read the AI answer when I search something; but holy crap is it a patronizing waste of time. Just now I was searching about a game and the long page of AI answer essentially boiled down to "kill stuff to get stronger," like brah, I know, I'm trying to look up exact formulas here, you piece of shit.
My questions are never answered by it, and when it tries, it's wrong even with follow up info. Man I really could live without it, lol.
Edit: oh, and this is a relatively new game but on both Google and Bing indexes, the first page and a half are clearly AI generated. Same boilerplate nothingburger answers. No surprise the search AI isn't good, it's regurgitating other AI answers. MAN I could live without it.
The stupid thing about ai's seems to be that they are so confidently wrong/guessing when they don't have the slightest idea. Almost like they've been told to never say "I don't know".
All they are doing is giving you a string of words that statistically follow each other. It can't say "I don't know" because it has no criteria for knowing.
Yeah they're particularly bad with games (like responding the wrong question) and scholarship
I think the AI summary is one of the only vaiable things if it comes to AI. And i mean just to figure out if you wanna read into it, not even to use it in any other way.
