Comment on Google Search referrals to the web have plummeted, AI links are 'less than 1%' of traffic
Khrux@ttrpg.network 20 hours agoI’m guilty of using LLMs from time to time, and more guilty of finding it gradually replacing what I used to Google search.
If it’s something that Wikipedia can help me with, that’s still my first port of call, but gradually, for anything problem solving related, I just ask an LLM.
Even a year or two ago, I was googling things with reliable websites for advice at the end, like reddit, but clearly that has decayed as a reputable source for support.
Googling things that require more than just knowledge is difficult now, and asking the sometimes wrong machine is consistently more useful.

God reddit is horrible with all the deleted posts or the gibberish. Followed by thanks for fixing my problem comment.

I hate reddits new UI. Shows a few comments, hides sub-comments, then a block of ads, then a useless automoderator comment and finally a ‘click for more comments’ button.
