A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

The only thing Gemini is good for is bringing up sources that don't appear in the regular Google search results. Which only leads to another question: why are those links not in the regular Google search results?
My only guess is that they're trying to see if de-enshittifying results for AI can make it profitable
That's an interesting thought. I would wonder if there's too much change/movement in the ai models, and would think that we won't see something like that until there's more stability, or one of the ai models comes out on top of all the others. Right now you'd have to optimize for half a dozen different models, and still be missing a few 'popular' ones.
I find the same with perplexity. It's more of a search assistant in finding some sources that a search engine likely wouldn't. Sometimes it's summarized answers are accurate, sometimes it's a jumble of several slightly unrelated sources.
