I was looking for info about the upcoming event. I got a guess about what might happen in the future. Cannot describe how useless this search result was.

Just changed my default search engine to DuckDuckGo. Can’t be worse than this.

    Yeah, the first time I used it I just did a test query, asking it to describe the last Super Bowl, and learned that Patrick Mahomes had won it by kicking a field goal.

    They call it ‘hallucinations’, but I call it a buggy mess.

      This sort of generative AI is a bullshit generation machine. I truly am impressed by the natural language it uses in the answers, but don’t trust the information at all. As AI LLMs train on the output of other AI it will only get worse.

        When AI melds with robots, AI will start having an enormous body of real world experimental data to train on. Then the words will become secondary, and AIs will become sane.

      I got a funny one the other day. In Stardew Valley my Sturgeon fish pond gave me the message, “We want a jelly.”

      I googled the string “sturgeons want a jelly,” without quotes.

      The LLM responded thusly:

      No, sturgeons do not “want a jelly.” Your sturgeon is a bottom feeder and you’ll want to feed it…

      It almost sounded exasperated, lol.

      The first result was the Stardew Wiki where I found the answer was literally any type of jelly.
